Incredible Caterer - for both small and large events

We have used Dido Fine Foods for both personal and professional events. Dido is a consummate professional and a talented culinary artist. Whether you want a fully catered, fully staffed sit down dinner or a buffet style pre-prepared feast for dozens, Dido and her team can accommodate and scale. For larger events, she coordinates with her extensive network of trusted & preferred vendors.

The food quality, presentation and taste are outstanding – you’ll have people raving about your party for months afterwards. Now when we host an event, people ask me – "Are you serving Dido again?" But, of course (wink wink)!

Finally, Dido is a lovely person who will listen and work alongside you to make sure you have the perfect experience – both for you and all your guests.

Excellent choice for a family celebration.

Dido was booked by our family to serve a celebratory dinner for 11 of us. She provided a really flexible approach to cater for all tastes and the food was lovely. Dido herself was really professional and managed everything beautifully with no fuss whatsoever. She made a very demanding job look very easy. Highly recommended.

Two Birthday's in One

We were hosting a combined 21st & 60th Birthday Celebration and lucky enough to find Dido.
The food was exquisite and Dido's team took care of everything on the night.
If you need top class food and a service second to none look no further than dido's fine foods.

50th birthday dinner party

We hired Dido as a private chef to cater for 25 guests at our house for my husband’s 50th birthday.
What a great decision that was - throughout all of our interactions with her, both in the planning stages and on the night itself, we were immensely impressed by her really approachable, friendly and professional manner but also by her clearly genuine love of being a chef.
Our night completely surpassed our (rather high) expectations. The food itself -we had a variety of unusual canapés, a ceviche as a starter, beef Wellington for a main course (and at the chocoholic birthday boy’s request) a 3 layered chocolate mousse with a brownie base as dessert- delighted all of our guests. She also catered for 2 vegans and a gluten free guest at the party too, who all also commented extremely positively on their meals.
She personally introduced each course to us and gave us the provenance of the ingredients which was a really great touch.
The service which the staff she brought along with her gave, was exemplary, so thoughtful, attentive and timely.
We couldn’t quite believe just how tidy our kitchen was afterwards - even the inside of the oven was the cleanest it’s been in years!
We highly recommend using Dido - her food was without doubt, the making of our entire evening and we can’t thank her enough for all of her hard work.

Private Chef Service - Highly Recommended

Dido recently cooked a three course meal at my home for my birthday. It was perfectly organised with suggestions to the menu and tweaks to suit our various tastes and dietary requirements! Dido was an absolute delight to have at our home, completely professional and even tidying up at the end with no dishes for us to wash! Our guests commented on how lovely the food was. I would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience of a Lock-Down Birthday

My first experience of a Lock-Down birthday was made really special by Dido's wonderful cuisine. The quality was superb, with really easy-to-follow instructions for heating-up items, and the quantities were more than generous. If you're wondering how to celebrate any occasion (in Lock Down or out!) look no further.

We had a memorable wedding anniversary this year!

We had a memorable wedding anniversary this year.
Despite the lockdown, we had a great meal at home courtesy of dido’s fine food. I was missing Asian food like Thai or Malaysian so asked Dido what she could magic up. .
The result was a stupendous Thai Green Curry which was full of flavour with a lovely taste of lemon grass and very generous portions.

Dessert was a delicious Chocolate roulade which was absolutely divine and disappeared very quickly.
Highly recommended❤️ .

Organising a 40th birthday celebration for a foodie

Organising a 40th birthday celebration for a foodie was a challenge.
With Dido’s inspiration, planning, preparation and delivery, there was a consensus of “Perfect!”.
Ask about the canapés, the lobster in a butter sauce and steak, with portabello mushrooms, never mind the frites.
And the pud? Ask Dido!
A triumph!
Whose birthday’s next?

Father’s Day dinner in Lockdown

Father’s Day dinner in Lockdown could have merged into all the other days, until I ordered our dinner from Dido's Fine Food. My husband really enjoyed the beef fillet, roast potatoes and roast Cauliflower and pomegranate main that our children chose from the variety of menus Dido offered. The children's favourite, however, was the very generous chocolate roulade with fresh berries. The light sumptuous sponge was a huge hit. The meal was delivered with easy to serve instructions and turned, what could have been a normal Sunday dinner, into a very special and memorable day. Thank you ❤️

Thank you so much, we all really enjoyed it.

Birthday Surprise!

We ordered from dido's fine food for a birthday surprise for my mother in law. The service and delivery was so well organised. We had the beef wellington and it melted in your mouth, the entire meal was wonderful!
