“I started using Mike at the Chef Centre more years ago than he or I would care to admit. Whenever and usually at the last minute I have been in the sticky stuff, he has always got me out of it, sending first class and reliable people, and doing so with constant politeness and patience”

Rowley Leigh – chef proprietor, restaurant consultant, and food columnist of the Financial Times

“I’ve worked with Mike at the Chef Centre for over 30 years. In that time I have frequently been bailed out by him when a last minute crisis occurs. His temps have always been reliable and the permanent chefs he’s sent me have gone on to become long standing, loyal members of our brigade. In a nutshell Mike never lets you down, nothing is too much trouble and any request is dealt with calmly and sympathetically”

Nigel Wilkinson – restaurateur, wine shipper and owner of RSJ on the South Bank

“My time working for the Chef Centre was always a first class experience. It certainly enhanced my knowledge of the catering industry as it was always varied and exciting”

Ainsley Harriott – chef, cookbook author and celebrity
