I feel like I need to give a proper review. Honestly from your first email response to me, I just knew your service would be great! You were prompt, very professional and most of all ‘human’. You listened to my needs and executed far and beyond. Everyone couldn’t stop raving about the food, from the taste, to the set up to the fact that they were even able to pack take away boxes! You are honestly the best and I wish you onwards and upwards success in your business. Please don’t stop with the excellent service! You’ve gotten yourself a new customer and I will be recommending you to everyone! Thank you so much once again, God bless you!
