THINKING about holding a fancy dinner party? Want to offer ‘Restaurant of the Year’ quality food? Terrible at cooking?
“I like the idea of working with the hosts to develop a menu that suits them, and then on the night itself, they can sit back, enjoy their friend’s company and leave the rest to us.”
No bother… Aumbry’s top boy Laurence Tottingham has just released details of his ‘Aumbry at Home’ personalised chef service.
Laurence and Mary-EllenWhether it’s social, corporate, or even a date-for-two, Laurence will work together with the hosts, taking into account specific tastes and requirements to develop a list of menu suggestions. The new service can even include a dedicated front of house with wine matching for up to twelve people.
A former protégée of Heston Blumenthal, Laurence spent four years at the Michelin starred Fat Duck in Bray, Berkshire, and helped Heston open his kitchen at the nearby Hind’s Head pub before returning to the North West to open Aumbry in Prestwich with his wife and co-chef-owner, Mary-Ellen McTague.
Laurence said, “A number of people have asked in the past if we would ever consider an ‘At Home’ service and I now feel we’re in a position to offer something that will really give dining parties the edge.
