The perfect food for every mood…

Hello! I’m Kate… what can I cook for you?

I’m fully insured and hold a 5* kitchen hygiene rating as well as relevant food safety qualifications. I’m also committed to sustainable practices - minimal waste, no single-use plastics and using local and responsible producers wherever I can.

Whatever you’re celebrating, wherever you’re doing it, I plan and cook the perfect menu for you and your guests. Allergies and dietaries are my superpower!

As a chef, I take an intuitive approach to cooking — I love to create meals that fit the occasion, mood and vibe perfectly. Look no further for seasonal, nourishing, inviting food that makes you feel right at home, a little smiley and deliciously satisfied.

DINNER IN THE GARDEN ✨ Last night we returned to the Henge Estate, which is fast becoming such a beloved venue to cook at - grand but homely, elegant yet relaxed. Glad we packed the silver - such a fun way to serve canapés in the garden! Huge thanks to @sophiesteeds for transforming the outdoor tables into a beautifully dressed long table - complete with fire bowls - in record time. Menu: Buffalo mozzarella, heritage tomatoes, raspberries, basil oil @wiltshire_smokehouse smoked chicken, lambs lettuce, balsamic strawberries Malbec beef, parsnip puree, heritage honeyed carrots, garlic roasted baby new potatoes Spiced sticky toffee, apple caramel, clotted cream #privatedining #eventchef #somersetcatering #wiltshirecatering #bespokemenu

BROWN SUGAR PAV, SOURED CREAM, CARAMELISED APPLES, (NOT) COBNUT PRALINE I needed a slow day of intentional cooking yesterday so I test ran the dessert I’ve designed for my 13 September supper club at @vallis_farm near Frome. September’s version will have cobnut praline (I’ve already identified my foraging stash like a good little squirrel and am waiting impatiently for them to be ready). It really feels like the perfect mellow late summer/early autumn pudding, contrasting sweet and sour, crisp and yielding, white and gold. Want to join us? The rest of the menu is pretty special too and is inspired by @stillsistersgin botanicals and aromatics - they’ll be sharing their apple gin in a welcome cocktail and we’ll have wine paring available for the meal too. £55/person, £67 with wine.

RED GOOSEBERRY SHERBET, STEM GINGER Since it’s the season of the frozen dessert, I’ve been playing with ice creams, sorbettos and sherbets, the less cloying cousin of ice cream. It turns out to be the perfect way to show sweet-sour gooseberries off to their best while the ginger layers on a spicy kick. The ideal dessert for people who don’t really care about desserts (I’m told they exist 🤷‍♀️) #recipedevelopment #summerdessert #localproduce #privatechef #eventchef

Just a little 🙏 GRATITUDE 🙏 post… …because I’ve been having all the feels (and very foodie feels) lately and it’s like things are falling into place, the way they were always meant to. I’m feeling super-grounded in my abilities, super-hopeful and curious for my future abilities (ALWAYS learning) and best of all, super creative, which was undoubtedly kickstarted by precious time in Guernsey last month with @inthestillpoint 🩷. Since then, I’ve cooked for clients like mad, developed eleventy billion recipes and menus and launched a load of lovely events for the autumn (links in bio). It feels so good to be in flow. And that reminds me that life doesn’t always feel like this and starting can be hard. I remember almost two years ago during a magical week with a beautiful bunch of chefs @bettinas_kitchen - when I thought my cooking career might go a very different way - we paused for the 11:11 portal and stood in the winter sun on a Hackney balcony and threw our intentions out into the universe, all of us hopeful and new in many ways and full of the joy of being together. I lit some palo santo for us because who doesn’t have that on their person at all times, and this intention came to me: I want to connect to the world through food. And I’m super grateful because in my own small way I am. Every mouth I feed, every event I create, every tiny detail that makes a massive difference to someone… I’m connecting, and it feels so good. Thank you to all who encourage and inspire me, and to those who trust me to feed them at special moments in life. I’m so lucky to do what I do. And I suppose the point is also this: it’s never too late for the journey that’s yours. Trust yourself, keep learning, and know that you were never meant to do this alone. There is so much help and love and kindness out there for you. #chef #alwayslearning #gratitude #creativehappylife

SUPPER CLUB! SAT 13 SEPTEMBER 🍎 I’ll be celebrating one of my favourite times of year with a gorgeously hyper seasonal feast at @vallis_farm and I’d love to feed you! Creating this menu was such fun: I was inspired by the idea of a golden and mellow table, soft sun and a nip in the air as night draws in. So expect plenty of summer colour plus the promise of autumn, with @stillsistersgin providing inspiration for botanical accents and a delicious cocktail to start the evening! Wine paring also available. Come and hang out with me in a truly magical place (and you can even stay in one of two cosy shepherd’s huts if you wanted to make a weekend of it!).

THE MORNING AFTER THE NIGHT BEFORE… When the night before involved a bespoke bar menu and an astonishing amount of @elrayotequila, life drawing, spectacular outfits and a meal fit for a very lucky birthday boy, a good breakfast is the name of the game. After cooking up a storm at beautiful Somerleaze House near Frome last night, it was amazing to come back in the morning and find fresh faces, big appetites… and someone asleep in the drawing room. Massive thanks to my amazing team, including @sophiesteeds and @sassy.spiers for their excellent bartending, cocktail skills and general organisation and @teeleefe._, Katie and Ali for keeping me sane in the kitchen. So proud of the feasts we created and the memories we helped make. #privatechef #eventcatering #bespokedining #celebrationmenu #brunch #somersetfood #somersetchef
