Frequently Asked Questions
Testimonials
I enjoy having family and friends over , and 'Sunday roast' with all the trimmings was not something I was confident doing, yet it's something that really brings a group of all ages together. I hired Nikki for a few hours on a Sunday and we prepared a Sunday Roast Beef. She sent me a shopping list beforehand (based on my likes and dislikes), then we cooked together. I made notes every step of the way, picking up on all the good hints and tips that Nikki was showing me, and then learning to get the flow of the timings just right. My husband's feedback at the end was that is was "one of the best roast beef dinners he's ever had" - and he's tried a few! It was a brilliant experience! I couldn't recommend Nikki enough with her years of cheffing experience and her professionalism, and she is also a great laugh. Learning should be great fun! Cheers Nikki!

"Nikkichef is truly exceptional! We have never seen a ‘grazing table’ like the one prepared for our anniversary celebration – nor had any of our guests. It was a work of pure artistry, with the taste to match. Just fab! Our friends are still talking about it two years on. Not only is Nikki an amazing chef, but she also treats her staff with a great amount of respect and is a pleasure to have around. We cannot recommend her services more highly".

I Have known Nikki for over year, working as a private Chef in Judges lodgings in Cardiff and Swansea. I have been extremely impressed by her cooking abilities, which are frankly superb, but also by her overall attitude. She is a cheerful and hard-working person. She is a pleasure to be around. She strikes me as also having a lively intelligence and very good initiative.

About us
Nikki is a talented and passionate chef with decades of experience in the culinary industry. Her dedication to creating exceptional dining experiences led her to establish NikkiChef, where she strives to surpass the expectations of every client.
Cooking across the world Nikki has had a colourful career. Some examples of individuals she has had the pleasure of cooking for include the late Queen Elizabeth, Diana Princess of Wales, the Dalai Lama, Olivia Coleman,Cerys Matthews, the Welsh Rugby Union and many other Sporting events.

Our ethos is very important to me, I pride myself on using locally sourced produce where possible and wherever my services are required.
Having an allotment has provided huge benefits to myself and my clients: the quality, taste and health benefits of growing organic fruit and vegetables as well as the learning process for me as a chef have been incredible. I'm extremely proud and delighted to bring that experience to "NikkiChef".

Wonderful Chef, the food, service and knowledge is fantastic. Nikki brings more than other private chefs, a lot of her food is homegrown, she uses with passion and shares tales that holds a room. Everything had flavour and looked beautiful!!
We were Guests at a party that Nikki did the most Wonderful food, 3-course buffet. All looked beautiful, so tasty and lots of it was grown by Nikki too, so impressed!! Nikki was also very interactive with all guests, great to see!! We enjoyed everything especially the trio of desserts!
We host many events and dinner parties, and this was the first time we had engaged with NikkiChef (we had a three course meal at our home for a group of 8 people). From the moment you meet Nikki, you join a food journey like I have never experienced. Her friendly, yet professional, nature at once allows you to relax and entertain your guests – as you immediately know you will be looked after. Next, the food………. I will never be able to write a review that will do justice to the exceptional quality and taste of Nikki’s dishes. Nikki grows her own produce and her explanations of each dish, provides more than just a meal – it is an experience. Nikki thank you so much – we will be seeing you again very soon!
I hired Nikki Chef for a family gathering at my home, Nikki was easy to work with, and very professional through out, the food was fresh, and all homemade, beautifully displayed, and most of all tasted delicious. It was the first time for using a private chef for a catering event, and won't be the last. 5 star!!
