Chef James

As a private chef in Hereford with over 30 years experience, I feel blessed to have catered for a broad range of clients, from royalty to top business directors, both privately and in some of the countries finest restaurants. Now based in the heart of the Herefordshire countryside, where I am spoilt for choice with the finest local ingredients, I hand-pick the very best local suppliers and pride myself on working with small, sustainable producers. This both supports the local economy and ensures that my ingredients are of the highest quality. I have experience of working in the counties finest establishments as well as working for two of Hereford’s prestigious events catering companies where I was an integral part in helping them to achieve their number one status in the local area. I love the flexibility and creativity that my private cheffing job allows, enabling me to create exciting and personalised menus for fabulous dinner parties. I can cater for any sized event whilst accommodating simple lower budget arrangements to extravagant fine dining.
