We have just returned from a long weekend with friends at Chateau Plombis. The icing on the cake was the three dinners provided by Viv – we cannot compliment her enough on the quality of her cooking.
If we are ever in the region again, we will have no hesitation on calling on her services. Mark & Ros Guilford

We recently arranged a wedding anniversary at the Chateau Plombis and arranged Vivienne to provide the catering.
The food Vivienne provided was of an exceptional standard coupled with very warm, genuine but discreet service.
Without fail all our guests were very impressed and thought the food was truly delicious.
We would certainly use her again when in Aquitaine.
We cannot recommend her highly enough.  Chris and Lisa Brigstock, June 2018

Whether catering for 4 or 40, Viv, ably assisted by husband Fran, will always produce exciting fare. There is an astonishing range of specialities, such a range it is difficult to decide what to omit. We have probably enjoyed their food for a dozen times and never been disappointed. Jan and Geoff Price.

We’d like to say a resounding ‘Thank you’ for looking after us so well. Your food was delicious! From the welcoming lasagne when we arrived hungry, to the tasty BBQ meats with fantastic veggie options, and the lovely side of salmon, culminating in the gorgeously tender sirloin for our celebration dinner we give you top marks! It was appreciated from age 6 to age 80! It was a pleasure to work with you and you couldn’t have been more helpful and understanding of our needs. Arriving on time and with impeccable service, we would definitely recommend you to other people.
From Sarah Jane Floate

We used Viv for my 60th Birthday Celebration and as usual the food was delicious. She is very organised in the kitchen and everything runs smoothly. We have also been to parties where she has cooked dinner for everyone and also buffet events. Always the same high standard. We would highly recommend Viv for any type of event.

We were very lucky to have Viv creating, and Fran serving, some delicious canapés for a cocktail party. The canapés were both sophisticated and tasty, and everyone at the party raved about them. Viv and Fran are completely professional and so friendly, they made it easy for us to relax and enjoy the party too. They even did all the washing up at the end of the evening which was a real blessing. We will definitely use Viv and Fran again and absolutely recommend them. They are very talented and help to make every occasion special. From Julie and Chris
