Corporate & Private Groups

Any reservation for 10 or more people qualifies as a group booking. Whether it's a birthday party, employee reception, girl's night out or team building exercise, we will design a menu and experience that's tailored to meet your specific needs.

Each menu is planned based on your budget, personal preferences and the degree of participation you want your guests to experience. The set up will be arranged based on your direction and we offer one stop shopping for any extra services such AV, decor, specialty cakes or overnight accommodation.

Special requests or menus that cater to individual needs such as food allergies, food preferences or dietary restrictions will be addressed with care and ideally should be identified up front to ensure every guest has an exceptional experience.

Our goal is to ensure every culinary experience led by our expert chef is both educational and entertaining. We take this commitment seriously and will work together to design just the right balance for your event.
