Our Story
I believe that food should always be colourful, joyful and celebratory, whether enjoyed alone or en masse.
Food is the essence of celebration, community and expression. It is a gift, to oneself and to others.
I cook with a passion and deep respect for food - both the ingredients and the dishes I create with them.
If you want food for your event to help inspire, celebrate and connect, please get in touch and I would be delighted to create a bespoke menu for you.

What clients tell us
Cat Rose did the MOST phenomenal food for a special family gathering. I cannot sing her praises enough. If you want some beautiful and utterly scrumptious food for any occasion, she's your girl! I am still blown away.
It was epic! The food was delicious, my friends were blown away. Everyone complimented the food but the beef and goats cheese were particularly mentioned!
I think that was about the best chocolate cake we have ever had! Hoovered up! Thank you so much.
