Hi Martin
First, I want to start off by saying that you did an exceptional job for Carol's 80th birthday. Everyone and I mean everyone, loved the food. You were professional, educational and an amazing cook. The food was tasty and hot and well prepared. I can honestly say that was one of the best catering jobs I've seen and I've been to and hosted many events. Having been in the event management business for over 20 years, you impressed me and I think that's saying a lot.
I know my brothers in law would be more than happy to pass your name along and they already have. The word is spreading through the Okanagan. My mother in law is also spreading the word and she has lived in the Okanagan for over 50 years so she has a few contacts.:)
And if ever you need a referral or testimonial, please do not hesitate to call on me. I would be more than happy to make recommendations to my friends and family who live in the OK. In fact, I posted your website on my facebook.
Many thanks again

What a fabulous night! Thank you for making it a stress-free and a memorable evening. The food was amazing, everyone loved it.
Our daughter Isabella (9 years old) wants to book you for her 10th Birthday Party in December....she's loves good food.


My parent were totally impressed, my Mom got a few cooking tips from you.
Our friends keep on raving about how good the food was. You obviously made an impression, thank you so much!
Until the next time.

Hello Chef Martin!
Thank you for a very memorable evening at Myra Canyon! The evening was a hit on all accounts. Everyone is saying it was the event of the weekend. I have to say the dancing just put it over the top....what a hoot.
The group is eager to receive all the recipes, if you are willing to share.
Thank you again Martin for the evening. I would do this type of event again in a heart beat.
