“I’ve now had the Tara’s Table experience 3 times – each time different, each time delighting my tastebuds and each time truly memorable. I’ve eaten your canapés at a party which were divine (your croquetas will always have a special place in my heart/stomach), the dinner party you threw for us was a real taste sensation and the cookery lesson was fantastic. We learnt so much and had great fun at the same time. I’d highly recommend you to anyone throwing a party, having friends to dinner or just wanting to have a great experience of cooking with a professional with immense knowledge and experience and a great sense of humour!”

“I asked Tara to cater an event last month. She took me through all her options, and what would work best for me and my guests. Her knowledge was very impressive, and my menu was developed to my requirements. Tara came into my home, set up my kitchen to her needs, and off she went cooking away throughout the evening. The canapés were not only stunning to look at, but most importantly tasted simply divine! My guests were all very impressed, and, with the amount I usually spend on nibbles at gatherings, she is great value too! I will be booking Tara into many more of my events, and recommending her to friends and colleagues. Thanks Tara!”

“I had the pleasure of an afternoon being taught by Tara how to make vegetarian Indian Food. After a warm welcome and donning an apron, the time flew by in food preparation, tasting and being told some really simple but useful cooking tips: I had not thought of using a spoon to peel ginger! As a gift for someone or for your own benefit I'd highly recommend booking a tuition session with Tara - having seen her work in the kitchen I know that her corporate catering must be superb and I will be using her services again.”
