Private Chef Hire in Basildon

"This was our fourth private chef that we’ve booked over the last five years and it was up there as one of best. The quality of the food was excellent - good sized portions and superb attention to detail. Communication throughout was very prompt. We will definitely be using Chris again."

"Chef Harold prepared an amazing 5 course meal for a 30th Birthday celebration. From the canapés to cheese board we couldn’t of asked for more. Highly recommend to anyone looking for this fabulous experience."

"We'd had really good dialogue about the menu prior to our weekend dinner party - difficult choices for picky teenagers turned out not to be a problem for Chef Silvestre. He arrived exactly on time. Brought ALL their own equipment plus fresh ingredients. Prepared EVERYTHING in situ. Silvestre happy to talk whilst working which was a bonus. Food choices worked supremely well. Nicely presented. Liked that he described the food to us. Highly attentive throughout. The desserts left us full ... happy ... and content. No small feat for a noisy family "do". And the icing on the cake? Everything cleaned up. Dishwasher loaded. Kitchen pristine again. So all told - a BIG shout out for Silvestre"

"Richie was great, really easy to deal with in advance and everything was great on the night. Yummy food, Richie brought everything he needed and left the kitchen spotless. Very accommodating for a lot of different allergies and intolerances. Would definitely recommend and book again."

"I wanted to book a private chef to celebrate my wife’s birthday and to cook for our group of ten who were staying in a holiday cottage. The first chef I booked many months in advance let me down at the last minute. Panic stations set in as I started my search again less than 2 weeks before the event. But within 24 hours I found ByMolly who were an excellent find. I can’t fault their service and communication throughout and the meal they served up was wonderful and enjoyed by everyone. Molly and Charlotte only set up their business during the first Covid lockdown and they have a great future ahead of them. I would certainly book them again."

"Chef Harold is fantastic, really nice guy, very professional, turned up and started work straight away. Food was absolutely amazing, everyone loved it. Best Tiramisu I’ve ever had! He even washed up! Would highly recommend and would definitely re-book for another dinner party."
