Making your Balham event easy
Balham is a family neighbourhood of houses with gardens, schools and parks. Children's birthdays, christenings and garden parties are what families here book most, with mild dishes for younger guests.
Balham is close to the Thames, with riverside venues, terraces and clubs. Riverside venues often have limited vehicle access, so we confirm loading points and carry-in distances before the day.
Any venue in Balham, indoors or out
Around Balham we cook at rowing and sports clubs, event spaces, family homes and gardens and riverside offices. The London Borough of Wandsworth is also home to Battersea Park, Putney riverside, Tooting Market and Wandsworth Common.
The drive from our kitchen is about 41 miles via the A3 and the South Circular, roughly 80 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. Balham is inside London's Ultra Low Emission Zone, which our vehicles are planned for, and any charge is built into your quote. For guests coming by train: Clapham Junction, the Northern line and the Northern line extension to Battersea.

Crowd favourites include Som Tam green papaya salad, Veg Gun Peacemaker stir fry, Mango Sticky Rice and Thai roti flatbread, and we build each menu around your guests, your budget and the style of your event, with mild versions for children and clear allergen labels on everything.

Google reviews
What our clients say
Every one of our 66 Google reviews is five stars. A few of them, in our clients' own words:
“They tailored their menu to us completely, adding a curry dish that is meaningful to us, and making sure the starters were vegan so all our guests could enjoy them… Most of our guests commented on how much they loved the food.”
“I booked Mihai and Nok for my mum's 60th birthday… they adapted their starters into canapés style plates for our casual dining event. Everyone was raving about the food and we didn't have any guests going hungry!”
“All of our guests loved the Thai buffet and we had lots of comments on the high quality. Mihai and his team were discreet and cracked on using the facilities the hall had… brilliant with some of the more complex dietary requirements.”
