Planning your event in Frating
Three in four homes in Frating (83%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. That suits our street food set-up: a gazebo and cooking station on the lawn or patio, with guests helping themselves from the food station.
Frating is a settled, close-knit community where many families have lived for years. With guests of all ages, we keep a mild option on every station and make sure there is seating near the food.
Frating has grown a lot in recent years, with 29% of its homes built since 2000. Newer estates mean lots of young families, so children's birthdays, christenings and housewarmings are common bookings here.

Around Frating we cook at port and town halls, garden marquees, seafront and beach venues and holiday parks and clubs. The Tendring district is also home to St Osyth Priory, Mistley Towers and the Stour estuary, Clacton Pier and the Naze Tower at Walton.

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.”
