“Chef David Lisken catered for my fiftieth birthday party recently. My guests and I were thoroughly spoilt with his creative ideas and attention to detail. He prepared a sumptuous vegan spread which was so much more than I had anticipated. David makes such an effort to pick the best produce and create dishes which are outstandingly tasty and healthy. The desserts were decadent. The vegan chocolate mud cake was my favourite…moist and chocolaty and presented so beautifully with rose petals and fruit.
It was the most wonderful way to celebrate!”

He was extremely professional and quick to respond to all my inquiries. David’s level of care and pride in his craft was evident in every detail, from the setup in our open kitchen to the complexity and beauty of the dishes he prepared. Our guests were amazed by the experience of watching him work and the incredible taste of food. I highely recommend David to anyone looking for a talented and professional chef.”
