Rhian Edwards

Great experience- the first time we’ve had a private chef for our family. We wanted something special for our parents 70th birthday. Having Joshua meant we had a beautiful meal, where we were all able to relax & enjoy. Food was presented beautifully & we enjoyed fresh bread, scallops, duck & dessert. Plus everything was cleaned up afterwards - what a treat!!
