TESTIMONIALS

 

Local Law firm Client Networking Evening (ongoing) 

The Presentation was stunning, the service unbeatable and the food was of course Scrumptious. 

 

Regular Dinner Parties for client in Esher (ongoing)

Sophie has been catering our private parties for 5 years now. Sophie is professional, creative and hard working. She is always punctual and above all discreet during a dinner party. Sophie is such a pleasure to have in the house and nothing is too much trouble. On recent date night she was nothing but professional, polite and discreet. For dinner parties, she was chatty and polite to guests and then got back to business. Her menu creation and execution is superb! The food is fresh and sourced from local suppliers making it even more delicious. We couldn't recommend her more highly.

 

Delivered Freeze Filling for family of 6 in Notting Hill (Ongoing)

All the food was perfect from the Thai curry to chicken goujons! I cannot believe I have managed to get my boys eating proper food, and it’s all thanks to your delicious dishes, they cannot get enough of your food. We can now sit down as a family and eat the same food and all enjoy it. Yummy, cannot wait for you to restock the freezer next month!

 

Freezer Filling and Parties in South Kensington (ongoing)

We have now known Sophie for a number of years and she has catered very regularly for us, either filling our freezer with delicious and healthy home cooked supper dishes or providing dinner parties for a group of friends or even a large gathering or up to 50 people. Not matter what the size of party, Sophie always produces fantastic food, and then charms all our guests while clearing away and leaving a spotless kitchen. She is creative with her menu suggestions and happy to accommodate any of our faddy food habits. I can highly recommend her.

Not only is Sophie's food delicious but she is an absolute pleasure to deal with.  Nothing is too much trouble, Sophie is always punctual, professional and tidy.  I would recommend Sophie without any hesitation in a heart beat.

Dinner Party for 12 in Haselmere (December 2016)

It would be impossible to fault the service and the top-notch standard of cooking provided by Sophie Ford of Scrumptious. Her food is truly delicious, with interesting, imaginative menus that more than fulfill your expectations. I would highly recommend Sophie for all sorts of occasions – from dinner parties to larger functions. Sophie’s quiet, unflappable approach when preparing and cooking in your own home is matched by the high quality of her food – mainly sourced locally from quality butchers and farm shops - and culinary expertise. She has produced a fabulous meal for a large dinner party in our home, and I have enjoyed her food at a friend’s (much larger) party. I would highly recommend Scrumptious and Sophie!

 

Dinner Party in Putney (November 2016)

Just wanted to thank you for a super dinner party last Friday. I thought your food was delicious and your calm, efficient manner allowed Jeremy and me to really enjoy the evening. We had had a very busy week and you and Lara gave us a delightful start to the weekend. Thank you.

Family Birthday Luncheon in Ridgwick (October 2016)

Cookery lesson in East Sussex (September 2016)

Thanks for a great day Sophie, I have learnt so much from you in one day, you have boosted my confidence and taught me cooking can be fun! Wish me luck with your dishes next week! See you soon for more learning! 

 

Summer Party in Shamley Green (August 2016)

Thanks for everything you and Camilla did on the day. Everyone had a super time and felt very well looked after. Food was excellent and inspired us to do it for friends next year...will be in touch!

 

Weekend entertaining in Sandwich Bay (Summer 2016)

Sophie has cooked for me at my home on two occasions; once for a week and once for a long weekend. I have no hesitation in recommending her delicious food and her ability to cope with rapidly changing requirements. She remained quietly and calmly in control and produced a range of tasty and delicious meals with a minimum of fuss. The first time Sophie came to us her food was absolutely first class, the next time- it seemed almost better if that is possible. She was also a pleasure to work with.

 

Dinner Party in Shalford (May 2016)

Sophie has catered for two large family parties for us, most recently my daughter's 21st birthday party for about 20 people, and on both occasions we were delighted with the beautifully presented, modern, delicious food that Sophie served up. Our only problem was which menu to choose, as there was so much mouth-watering choice. Everything from the canapés to the exquisite puddings was perfect and all the guests commented on how lovely it was.
Sophie herself is a delight to work with - a brilliant chef, enthusiastic, patient, hardworking and good-humoured. How she managed to produce such lovely food from our wonky old kitchen I will never know. I would have no hesitation in recommending Scrumptious. 
I'd just like to add that the waiting staff that Sophie employs have always been equally hardworking, cheerful and smiley. 
Thank you Sophie!

Amazing canapés and dinners every evening- beautifully presented and original. We love Scrumptious Catering and
Sophie’s ever smiling face.
