Hosting a dinner party at home is hard work, which is why we can't stress enough the benefits of our private dining service. Never has the concept been more popular or more sensible than in today's society, and at Lottie's Kitchen, we're getting more and more bookings for private parties as people recognise that private dining just works.
Lottie's Kitchen can create a bespoke dinner party menu for parties of six or more people. We'll come to your home, prepare and cook in your kitchen and serve up your perfect meal. Below are some of the benefits to private dining at home.
Time for guests
At many parties we've been to over the years, we've noted that the chance to actually chat with the hosts can be rare - more often than not they are rushing around trying to see to their guests! Hiring Lottie's Kitchen for your private dinner party means you can sit back and relax with your guests while we do the hard work in your kitchen. We want you to enjoy the experience as much as your guests and feel part of the evening from the comfort of your own home. We'll even stay and do the washing up!
Customise your party
Hosting a private meal at your home allows you to plan the evening however you wish and add the perfect finishing touches to make things really special. If it's a special occasion such as a birthday or an anniversary, we can customise the menu to suit your guests - we can even incorporate a theme if you have a particular one in mind. We've provided food for just about every theme you can think of and we're always working at ways to challenge ourselves further.
Restaurant quality food
Eating at home can also save you money - no need to book a taxi home and you can provide your own wine which saves a huge amount of cost if you like a drink or two! We can even give you tips on the best wine to pair with your meal - to impress your guests! Our pricing reflects the quality of the food we'll prepare for you. All of our ingredients are sourced locally so we can promise you fine quality, seasonal bistro-style food at a good price. We know you won't be disappointed.
Save valuable time
Food preparation for parties can take days to prepare, particularly if you've planned a three-course meal where sourcing the right ingredients may prove tricky. You then have to set aside the time to prepare each dish, cook it all up on the night, stick to set timings for different elements and more. We'll take all the stress away so you have more time to focus on other things in your life, and when it's time to kick off the party, you can just pop on your party clothes, crack open the fizz and you're away!
Keep guests happy
Finding the right menu to suit all your guest's tastes can prove tricky - you may have vegetarians, gluten-free diets and vegans all in one sitting. We can go through the menu with you in detail to incorporate all of your specific dietary requirements, and because we do all the cooking ourselves, we know exactly what ingredients have gone into all our dishes. We'll work with you to produce the right dishes to accommodate everyone and keep your guests happy and their belly's content. You'll end up with the perfect menu - all we have to do is cook it and serve it up with Lottie's traditional flair.
Home from home
We know some people may worry about how private the event will be with outside caterers on the scene, but we want to reassure you we'll simply blend into the background - you'll hardly know we're there. We'll work in your kitchen to cook everything, we'll serve it out and then we're very happy to slip away back into the kitchen and work on your next course. At the end of the evening, we'll be too busy clearing up and washing the dishes to notice - your dinner party secrets will be safe with us!
Embrace the chance to relax and unwind with your guests while Lottie's Kitchen does the hard work for you. We offer bespoke private dining packages tailored to your party's requirements - all with our unique Lottie's touch.
