We sadly arrived back to reality yesterday and I just wanted to send you a quick email to again thank you for the amazing service, culinary supremacy and personal touches that you provided at our wedding function on Friday 02/10/15. We had every guest rave about you and the food that you prepared and served to us on the evening. As you know, we had a few fussy eaters and everyone was absolutely delighted and that made things all the more special for us. The service provided by the ladies (I don’t want to mis-spell their names) was brilliant and if you can pass on our sincere thanks to them as well, I would be most grateful. Thank you again for everything. You and your team are an absolute dream to deal with and it was our privilege to have you prepare our delicious banquet for us – Sean and Diana 2015

We would love to have you cook for us again when we are in FNQ in the future – Ashleigh and Adam 2015
What a phenomenal day…Our Wedding was exceptional. We asked Chriso to cater for our midday celebration. Knowing the food was an equally vital part of your day, it was paramount that it was the best we could offer to our guests. The level of professionalism was only equalled by the sensational flavours that had extremely fussy people, returning for seconds and leave them with a monumental memory of our Wedding day. What a clever, talented Chef! Each mouthful filled us with happiness. Thank you for making our special day sensational – Bronwyn 2015
We traveled all the way from WA for a wedding in Port Douglas. The absolute highlight of our friends wedding day was the scrumptious food. Our only disappointment was the fact that we simply didn’t have enough room to fit the most amazing food in. Chriso your a wonderful humble chef. Your team made the wedding a relaxed yet professional atmosphere. Can’t highly recommend you and your team enough. Just wish we could take you over to WA – Emma 2015
A big thankyou Chris, was so lovely to have someone so friendly and easy going at our special occasion. Everyone was so impressed with the quality of food, the amount of food, yourself and your staff. Your arrival at 12.00pm ensured everything was fresh and all prepared for our guests by 6.00pm. The only complaint I have was that our guest where full, because the food tasted so good, they could not stop eating. Highly Recommended. A delicious experience. Definitely 1st Class in everyway – Victoria & Todd and all our guests 2015
Hello Chris,On SAT 25/07/15 I attended my friend’s wedding in Port Douglas (Aaron and Amanda) and I’ve been meaning to email you ever since as we are still talking about how amazing the food was! The service, friendliness of yourself and staff, the quality, presentation and taste of the food was nothing short of spectacular and ultra professional – I’ve worked previously in hospitality/Alice Springs Conv. Centre and everything was just truly was super impressive! Such a credit to yourself and team! – Ness 2015
