A cocktail party that refuses to go lukewarm
In France or abroad, guests stand, talk and drift between conversations while the bites arrive hot from the venue's own kitchen.

Nothing sits on a tray for long
Savoury and sweet, entirely bespoke. Every bite is designed around your crowd, not pulled from a standard cocktail list.
I set up in the venue's own kitchen and cook in waves, so what reaches your guests is hot, fresh, and finished minutes before it's passed round.
Some formats include a live station, so people can watch a dish come together while they talk.
I only take a handful of cocktail dates each month, so the prep gets proper time.
Occasions this suits
A milestone birthday, an intimate wedding reception, a housewarming worth remembering.
A product launch or a corporate evening where the food needs to say something about the brand behind it.
A family celebration or a reunion, where you'd rather circulate with a glass than stand behind a buffet.
From 20 guests, at a €2,000 minimum order.

FAQ
Common questions about cocktail parties.
Do you accommodate allergies?
Always. It's one of the first things we discuss, so every guest genuinely enjoys the evening.
Do you offer sweet creations?
Gladly, if you wish. I enjoy designing a sweet touch that rounds off the evening gracefully, without heaviness.
Do I need to arrange service staff?
For larger receptions, it helps for smooth circulation. I handle recruitment and coordination. It's simply billed separately.
What kind of kitchen is needed on site?
An equipped kitchen with clear worktop, hob and oven. We discuss specifics beforehand to ensure everything works.
