“I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Yves and Gosia for making our first “chef at home” evening such a success. Both the food and the service were first class, giving us all a thoroughly enjoyable evening.”

Graham, Bardsey

“Having had the fantastic pleasure of enjoying the French Chefs meals, I think he is wonderful .The first time we used him was for my sons 21st when the restaurant we had booked in York closed at short notice .The food was fantastic and so much better value than a restaurant ,he made the day for us. Thank you”

Liz and Nick, Poppleton

“We have been fortunate to experience Yves’ cooking, and every one has been truly memorable. It is not only stunning to look at, it is packed full of sensational and seasonal flavours while remaining authentically and recognisably part of the great French tradition. Yves and Anne are also wonderful hosts and the experience feels like a personal invitation to the private dinning table of a top-level chef”

Lucy and Rob, Harrogate

“We have been lucky enough to have experienced Yves cooking not only in his own home but in ours too… Each occasion has been different in its presentation and content as well as consistent in quality, taste and variation… it never disappoints and we have been introduced to French cuisine both modern and traditional… all absolutely sublime! Hard to choose, but one occasion in particular was when we arranged a ‘meal at home’ for a Valentines dinner… hors d’oeuvres… fantastic both in variety and flavour. Starters were delicious and eased us into the delights to follow. The main courses just excelled… the combination of tastes and textures was absolutely stunning, with desserts of fitting standard to finish. What a great decision we made, and we feel passionately that everyone should try ‘The French Chef at Home'”

Jane Hunter, Knaresborough

“French Chef at Home made our drinks party last Friday, the food they created was amazing; tasty, different and lovely to look at. Anne and Yves are also a pleasure to have in your home, they make things easy! I would highly recommend them for all your food entertaining needs.”

Sandra Wiggins, Harrogate

I was lucky enough to have ‘French Chef at Home’ cater for my 40th birthday dinner. The food was absolutely sensational – the highlights, to name a few, being the Roasted Angus Beef with chestnuts and the Louis XV dessert with home made ice cream… It was great fun to have Yves and his colleague Noel around and we were all amazed at the way they just turned up and fitted in. Behind the scenes, Anne was enormously helpful and patient as we refined the menu. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this fabulous team for any special event.

Daisy Johnson, Bingley

I Was very impressed by Yves. I have munched my way across large parts of Europe in some very well regarded eating houses, and his efforts compare very favourably with the best. He certainly deserves to succeed in his venture

John Chamberlain, Harrogate

Just a quick note to thank Yves for a splendid meal last night. We had pretty high expectations but they were surpassed by a long way. Everything was excellent. We loved everything but the main course and dessert were especially nice. We appreciated the chance to take the meal at our own pace and it’s a real treat to come back into a clean kitchen with no washing up. Our guests were very impressed too and I shall be telling all my colleagues at work in Leeds.

Adrian Stone, Sheffield

Thank you Yves and Anne for a superb dinner at ours last Saturday. Our guests were delighted with the delicious food and the service…. and as hosts, we could really relax and enjoy our party as well. Doing business with French Chef at Home was a pleasure from the first contact and the cook was very accommodating to our guests’ dietary requirements.

Florence Van Schependom-Brown, Sheffield

hat a wonderful meal we had on Saturday. The children and partners had a wonderful evening and enjoyed every part of the meal. My son said it was better then the Box Tree in Ilkley. High praise indeed.I shall certainly recommend you to friends and find some excuse to have you come over again to cook for us. Thank you again. A memorable evening and thank you for your patience with Yogi.

Andrea Ainley, Askwith

Thank you to Yves and his team for providing delicious food and great service for my surprise 60th birthday dinner last Saturday. All our guests loved their food and the pace it was served to us. It gave us the perfect opportunity to enjoy tasty well presented food in our own home. Thank you.

Sarah Dawson, Staveley

Thank you very much for visiting our vacation home in the Lake District to cook for us. Noel did a great job looking after us and the food was simply magnificent. A couple of our group said that the meal was one of the best they had ever had. We were very impressed overall with the quality and ease of the service you provided and would highly recommend you to others.

Michael Green, Windermere

Thank you both so much, yesterday’s lunch was a great success. So many people said how delicious the food was and how attentive your staff were. A huge hit all round. It was so lovely for me to entertain so many people without lifting a finger – very spoiling ! Thank you both again.

Judith and Charlie Nickols, Ripon

On behalf of Julia & myself I just wanted to thank you both for a fantastic evening on Friday. Yves, your food was amazing, the quality, presentation and service were second to none. All our guests were highly complementary and said what a wonderful evening they had all had. So thank you both for all your efforts we will most certainly use you for future entertaining.

Stephen and Julia Lister, Ilkley

Fabulous mouth watering, delicious meal prepared by Yves last night, his attention to detail is incredible, highly recommended! Thank you Yves and Anne for making our Birthday very special. Magnifique!

Paul and Rachael Tranter, Staveley

This is a very belated thank you for coming to our home last Saturday and treating us to the most delicious supper to celebrate my birthday! The event worked so well - miles better than I had imagined, and the evening just flew by far too quickly! It worked so well and everyone has been so complimentary about the food - many of my friends are still raving about the beef in particularly, though Nigel and I received lots of positive comments about everything! Thank you also Yves for coming to explain the courses - it was lovely of you to do that.

I’d also like to thank Noel for his teams’ skill in discretely looking after everyone so well. It was very impressive how they all worked so quietly together to make everything run so smoothly and made sure that all of our guests had drinks topped up continually and really wanted for nothing.

Zoe, Malton, June 2023

I just wanted to say thank you to you and Yves for such a delicious meal. The food was wonderful and all of the girls loved it.

Just a quick note to thank you for your service and helping to make Mom's evening very special. We had a fabulous evening. Yves and Noel's food and service were excellent and we will remember them for a long time. We wish you continued success and are happy to recommend your company.

Nick, Ripon, March 2024

Thank you Yves and Gosia for such an amazing evening the weekend before last.

The food was exceptional. Our friends were talking about it for days. But the effortless way in which Yves and Gosia just arrived, and quietly went about their work, with such friendly and easy professionalism was quite amazing. I could have chatted to them both for hours, but of course we would have got in the way!

Thank you for making Emma's Dinner Party a night to remember, and I very much hope we may meet them again at some point in the future!

Stephen, Leeds, March 2024

Thank you for our 1st class lunch. Both Yves & AJ were excellent. We will book you for future events. Many thanks

Colin and Mollie, Kettlesing, July 2024

A short note to thank you all for help creating a wonderful day on Sunday with our grown up family and three grandchildren.  From the organisation to the delivery of the food and the lovely Gosia and Yves, it was a wonderful success and enjoyed by all.  Thank you so much.

Ann, Husthwaite nr Thirsk, July 2024

On behalf of everyone who attended Saturday's meal, please pass on our heartfelt thanks to Yves and Noel. Christine and I could not have asked for anything better and the evening was a great success. It was a special meal for a special occasion. Thank you all once again.

Ian and Christine, Arrathorne, July 2024

Just a note to say thank you to Yves, Noel and yourself. The dinner Yves prepared for us was absolutely delicious, and really made our wedding day special. We truly appreciated Noel's professionalism and the fantastic service he provided. And also thanks to you for all the correspondence in arranging the meal!

Stephanie and Robert, Richmond, August 2024

We’re home from the most fabulous weekend and wanted to extended our greatest thanks to both Yves and Noel for creating the most special evening for us. The food was phenomenal and my mother-in-law said it was the best salmon she’s ever tasted! 

Noel was a delight, so attentive and thoughtful. Unfortunately we’d drank a lot of our wine the previous night so we didn’t leave him with much options left to serve haha but that was absolutely finel and we’ll drink anything with our meals. 

What a great pair and an amazing service you offer! I’m so thrilled we managed to get booked in with you last minute. 

Laura, Skipton, September 2024

We are still talking about that wonderful meal. 

We have been discussing the menu and the canapes. No-one can remember what was in the first canapé. I remember it was choux pastry and we think it was vegetarian…. 

What was the filling ?? Please could you remind me!

The grouse breast and peanut satay dip was sublime.

Charles, Alsably, September 2024

Thank you for the splendid lunch on Sunday, which was much appreciated by all the company.

William, Galphay, October 2024

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the wonderful meal ‘The French Chef at Home” cooked for my mother's 80th birthday celebrations on 19th October. Everyone loved it! It was a really memorable occasion and having a professional chef and team to cook and serve made it really very special - so thank you!
