From Mrs C - DEFRA
We get excellent feedback from our customers over the variety
you provide - I think your food is very well presented - although
I notice the flowers have disappeared! Food labelling is essential.
From Mrs R . Reading Borough Council
I have checked with the delegates that attended the workshop
and they were very impressed with the quality of food and there
was plenty there so some very good feedback. Thank you for delivering
the food so promptly and we will no doubt use your services again
in the future.
From Joe and Lucy wedding July 06
We much enjoyed your food and were very happy with it. We'd be
happy to recommend you. If something does come up though we'll
make sure to remember you.
Mrs Susan - High Wycombe Council
Vincent Charles' organic buffet is a delight to behold - and
even more delightful to eat! The varied ingredients are combined
imaginatively - far excelling theusual limp offerings received
at corporate events and presented with care by Vincent himself.
Vincent also stays on site - discreetly re-arranging the dishes
, removing empty platters - and is happy to answer any questions
about the produce.The combination of imaginative food, expertly
presented, with excellentservice results in excellent value for
money.
