Our car park, kitchen, private table and toilet facilities are on one level and there is a small step to get into our building.

Last month, we served a three-course meal at the Hampshire offices and workshop of Gaze Burvill.

Gaze Burvill are designers and makers of some truly outstanding outdoor furniture. They are a B-Corp accredited company and they use the finest sustainably-sourced oak and work with their customers to create bespoke installations such as chairs, benches, tables and outdoor kitchens.

It was a real privilege to see inside their Hampshire workshop where each piece of outdoor furniture is handcrafted. As much as we’d like to, we couldn’t sit around all day, and so our team arrived in the morning to provide a three-course lunch for their guests.

The key to our on-the-day kalm is in the prep. Our cooking started the day before in our Surrey kitchen as we picked and prepared the produce, building in flavour that would be savoured on the day. Our planning started even earlier, when the client got in touch and talked with our planners so we could understand the brief and create a menu and experience that worked for them, their space and their guests.

We were working out of Gaze Burvill’s staff kitchen, so we first met with the team, unpacked our van and began setting up our station.

Starters

• A low-and-slow-cooked chalk stream trout with tartare dressings and scraps

OR

• Sauteed Girolles, puffed spelt and black garlic puree

Mains

• Hampton’s Estate Beef Fillet, Pumpkin Onion Tart with Rocket

OR

• Roasted Baby Kabocha Squash Stuffed with Mixed Grains, Sauteed Brussel Sprouts and Butternut Puree

Dessert

• Spiced Black Moor Orchard Fruits with Meringue and Pear Sorbet.

Our wonderful waiting team provided table service, serving bread, drinks and dishes.

We really enjoyed working with the Gaze Burvill team at their Hampshire HQ and once service was finished we ensured our client and guests were happy, we tidied down the tables and kitchen, packed up and headed back to our base.

Come along with us in this video as we go behind the scenes head to our client to bring the Kalm Kitchen catering magic to their event.

Not much sums up summer better than a dessert bursting with freshly picked berries, and our Summer Berry Dessert Station certainly caused a sensation this year. Loaded up with pavlova, berries, whipped double cream, wildflowers and meringue kisses, it’s almost too good to be true.

This year, we set out to create an abundance of delicious and beautiful desserts that could be built live during at your wedding celebrations. We love food that gets people talking. And what could be more fun than your guests helping themselves to a bowl of hand-served dessert to graze with on the lawn.

Made up of a 3.5 foot square of pavlova, we pile up this all-time favourite base with an abundance of berries and florals. It looks stunning and we have it on good authority that it tastes just as amazing too!

To create it, Camilla @camillascreationsflowers helped us dress an elevated round table with florals. Interactively building it in front of your guests is all part of the theatre. Layers of lovely flavours makes this a unique station within our list of sharing desserts and it’s all finished off with edible flowers to make it pretty as a picture.

Ideal for rounding off the meal or as a late night extra, it’s always a total crowd pleaser.
