Inner Temple Foods

A dazzling feast was prepared by Melaine for a sizable gathering of 16 individuals. Her expert handling of the culinary duties ensured the evening went off without a hitch. Thanks to the chef's services, I was able to socialize with my friends instead of being stuck in the kitchen as the host. The star attractions of the meal were the impressive Tomahawk steak and the delightful nutmeg bread pudding, paired with a delectable bourbon whipped cream dessert.

The food and overall experience provided by Chef Mel were exceptional. I highly recommend his services. Our group consisted of 7 adults and 4 children. Chef Mel was thoughtful enough to serve the children first so they could enjoy their meal and play while the adults indulged in their dinner. The children raved about the homemade mac and cheese, veggies, and bread, while the adults were treated to delicious appetizers. Our main course included a salad, sides, and expertly cooked fish that simply melted in our mouths. The dessert was truly one-of-a-kind - a brûlée'd coconut cake topped with passion fruit that unanimously made it to the top five desserts ever tasted among the adults at the table. Chef Mel was kind enough to help pack leftover food and took care of the clean-up afterwards. Trust me, booking a dinner with Chef Mel is a decision you won't regret.

When planning a celebratory brunch for a 50th birthday and college reunion, Chef Mel was the perfect fit. She collaborated closely with me to craft a tailor-made menu based on the guest of honor's favorites. In fact, she even experimented with a new recipe to recreate a special dessert that we had enjoyed almost two decades ago! Chef Mel was attentive to our timeline and requirements, following up regularly and remaining flexible enough to adjust timing on the day of the event. She arrived promptly and immediately set to work, creating an event that we will always treasure. By the time we were all dressed and ready, our sumptuous feast was displayed beautifully in an ideal setting. The brunch was simply amazing! I'm still dreaming of the maple bacon, and the potatoes were out of this world. I cannot fault Chef Mel and would highly recommend her services to anyone planning a special catered event. Watch this space - I'll be sharing pictures soon! Thank you, Chef Mel!

Chef Melanie exceeded all expectations! Her menu suggestions were incredible and she readily accommodated the dietary restrictions of some members of our group with ease. She arrived promptly as promised and was open to us observing and inquiring about her culinary process. The meal itself was undoubtedly one of the most delicious experiences we've ever had! Without a doubt, you should hire her services immediately!

Chef Melanie was absolutely incredible! I enlisted her services to cater a special girls night dinner to celebrate a milestone occasion, and she exceeded my expectations in every way. From our initial communication, Chef Melanie was prompt, professional, and personable, and she always offered thoughtful suggestions to make the event even more special. Her website was also incredibly helpful, providing vivid descriptions and images of her signature dishes. Together, we designed a phenomenal menu that perfectly catered to the occasion and the guests' different tastes. On the night itself, Chef Melanie was nothing short of a hero! Despite a malfunctioning oven, she managed to pivot seamlessly and prepare absolutely delicious dishes using alternative cooking methods. Her warm and friendly demeanor was the perfect addition to our ladies night, and we all enjoyed a memorable and laughter-filled meal. As a self-confessed sweet tooth, I couldn't resist trying out three of Chef Melanie's delectable desserts: the pink lady cardamom cake, the bread pudding, and the coconut cake with passionfruit curd. While all three were fantastic, I must admit that I am still dreaming about that last one! If you're ever unsure about which dessert to choose, trust me, the coconut cake with passionfruit curd is an absolute must-try. Overall, I would highly recommend Chef Melanie to anyone looking for a truly fantastic catering experience. Her talent, professionalism, and impeccable customer service are unmatched, and I very much look forward to working with her again in the future.
