We're lucky enough to hire Alpay to cater my mum's 70th birthday (14 adults). The food was delicious and Alpay kept everything running on time (despite not having his planned for extra pair of hands due to unforeseen circumstances).
Alpay was accommodating with menu changes in the lead up to the event and was such a lovely person it was so nice to have him as part of our event.

Chef Alpay organised a 3 course menu with canapés for a birthday celebration which was absolutely delicious. Alpay and Sophie were faultless throughout organising us with timings, service, and of course leaving the kitchen without a trace. This all made a for a special experience and allowed us all to relax and enjoy the day.
I would hesitate to recommend Chef Alpay, prompt responses allow you to organise your celebration with ease and superb culinary delights. Thank you to you both.

Wow what a meal! Chef Alpay was amazing, the food was spectacular, the communication was excellent and he delivered so much more than we could have hoped. Chef Alpay did the food for our wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding meal, everyone was blown away and it really added to our special day. Couldn't recommend him highly enough - thank you Chef Alpay

Absolutely delighted with all aspects of Chef Alpay. Lovely chap to have in your kitchen. All three courses and canapés were truly delicious. Steak and chips canapés were define. Won’t hesitate to use again. Such a lovely experience to have superb food served in your own home. So relaxing and much easier than eating in an expensive restaurant.
Well done Alpay and good luck

Absolutely the most fantastic, delicious food, and such a warm friendly service. We got Chef Alpay to cater a 70th birthday party for 16 adults. The quality of the food was exceptional, all special diets and requirements were specially provided for. Our bottom oven even broke and he still made everything work brilliantly. So so impressed and would 100% book Chef Alpay again.
