Private Chef & Event Catering in Ascot
Following 30 years in leading kitchens—including The Vineyard at Stockcross and the 5-star Old Government House—I founded Chef Simon McKenzie to bring that same level of culinary excellence directly to private homes in Ascot.
Whether you are hosting an intimate dinner party in Sunninghill or a large celebration near the Racecourse, my team and I handle everything. We don't just cook; we provide a full restaurant experience. This includes fine crockery, cutlery, glassware, and a professional service team, leaving you free to entertain your guests without lifting a finger.
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.

Simon and Aisling put on a spectacular evening for our 8 guests. The cooking was out of this world, and everything so smooth and well thought out. Would highly highly recommend

Simon and his team were absolutely wonderful and helped to make my wife's 60th birthday party a truly memorable event. The food was outstanding and the service was exceptional throughout.
Ken A.
Simon and his team provided delicious canapés and a wonderful three course lunch to celebrate my father's 90th birthday. All the guests commented on the lovely flavours of the food and the beautiful presentation. Simon is a pleasure to plan an event with and we are repeat customers !
