About me

ENTER THE WORLD OF HOME COOKING BY ELIZABETH

Although Normality is back we continue to serve you in whatever capacity you would like and have decided that our “Catering in a Bubble” services will continue.  This is very popular with clients who prefer to restrict their catering requirements. 

This is our 36th year and we look forward to many events that are being reinstated from last year as well as many new ones.   Our Showroom is reopen however although many restrictions have been lifted, we have decided that we will still continue to see clients by appointment. We are still happy to do Zoom Meetings. We request that masks are worn.

 Bringing Food and People Together Catering is my passion and my life it have given me great satisfaction knowing every event is special whatever the size.  This Year the support that we have received has been tremendous and we eagerly look forward to our 37th Year.

Home Cooking By Elizabeth Pre & Post Pandemic

I can bespoke every menu, often producing recipes personally for my clients.  I am the main influence of all my catering events and will be seen back of house in my apron!  I am supported by my husband Jon and daughters, who all have their own roles within the business. My daughters work closely with me and have become a very important part of the business taking the next generation to a different level.

It seems a long time ago, starting just in my kitchen at home with my three small children, producing and selling my products at local indoor craft markets. It was during this time in my life when I created my signature dishes, which I am still producing today; homemade pies, quiches and numerous types of cakes.

Over the past years, I have always kept food ideas and styles up to date, my basic technique of home style cooking, or as a great friend of mine always says “Cooking from the Heart”, using the best possible ingredients, has always been the key to my success. I am also mindful of and support local produce and businesses. I am very fortunate to live in Great Bookham in Surrey where there is a wealth of great suppliers, with excellent butchers, a fish monger, a bakery and a greengrocer all of which are family businesses who care.

Throughout the years, my personal catering service has always thrived and many clients are still using our services since 1986.  It is the core of my business and my great passion.  I have many testimonials from past clients who have appreciated and experienced those special touches of mine and those of my staff.  Whatever the size all events are treated the same.  The menus are only an idea to give a price structure when you are browsing through them.

I eagerly write my own recipes and you will find many of my recipes on the website, I have also written for local magazines, occasionally broadcast on local radio and apparently pop up on Cbeebies in a children’s programme, as a puzzled cook producing bizarre things from the kitchen! Something I did a few years ago! I am just about to embark on another exciting adventure and will keep you posted!

We are based in Great Bookham and  welcomes client to visit and discuss their personal requirements.

We are fully licensed caterers and we can provide pay bar services or party packages. We include Trained Staff & Glassware. We can sell and provide wine even if our catering services are not needed.
