From fine dining to garden parties and weddings to corporate entertaining, my team and I guarantee the highest levels of creative, modern cooking and elevated professional service.

I can create bespoke menus to your exacting requirements and budget – whether fine dining or expansive finger buffets and barbecues – with my team on-site to ensure the highest levels of service throughout.

What a fabulous dinner! All thanks to Simon and his team. We chose the seven course tasing menu and weren’t disappointed! Simon worked with us on a menu combination that would work for us and it really paid off.

Everyone, absolutely everyone loved the amazing menu. Depth of flavour, lovely taste, and texture. The service was seamless, and the team were very attentive without being overbearing.
Thank you for making our evening so memorable!
Thankyou Simon, Aisling and team for a really special garden party with beautiful food and presentation - it is just as good in real life as in the photos. And so grateful for your flexibility on timing and numbers as we juggled the HRR racing schedule and the weather. We were so relieved to have the benefit of your experience to manage the day. We look forward to seeing you again!
We recently hired chef Simon McKenzie and the team for a big birthday celebration at our home. Having never done this before we really did not know what to expect, but the whole evening completely surpassed our best expectations.

The food was absolutely amazing - The comments from our friends all evening throughout dinner, and afterwards, were nothing but glowing - everyone loved the canapés and 5 course Mediterranean inspired menu, and thought the flavours just wonderful!
