 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommended company for chefs for quick cover, very friendly and great service. I have been using this company for a year and they have always been there for every need. All the chefs they have sent to us, have been friendly, hardworking and have fitted in perfectly with my own team of chefs. Nothing is too much trouble, Colin is professional, loyal, helpful and always on the other end of the phone to solve any staffing issues we have within our kitchen.
If you need chef cover i highly recommend 5*
Thanks to Colin and his team.
