About Appetite for Adventure

Our two owners — a head chef and a business director — have over 20 years experience in hospitality and event management between them, and regularly work for national and international organisations as well as private individuals and local businesses.

The kitchen

Our head chef is fully trained, with a passion for preparing rustic, hearty food using only the very best local ingredients that the team can source. He started out as a Commis Chef, has cooked in various countries and travelled extensively — and whilst travelling followed another passion and qualified as a mountain guide. He has vast experience running large kitchens as Head Chef.

The business

Our director’s background is in the corporate world, working in marketing at a senior level for many years with leading brands internationally. She joined the business in 2014 to drive it forward and take Appetite for Adventure to the next level — and shares the same passion for adventure.

Together

Together they bring you Appetite for Adventure, an outside catering, mobile bar and events management company that has built a solid reputation specialising in providing superb experiences across many environments.

Whether you are planning a corporate event in the Purbecks, a charity cycle ride across France, a pop-up bar for a wedding in a field or a fine dining dinner party for 8 in your own home, no job is too big or too small. Appetite for Adventure can comfortably cater from 5 up to 5,000 people at any one time and can take their services to any location.

Supporting local

Supporting local is not a slogan here, it is how the menus get written. Wherever possible (and depending on what is in season) we source our ingredients from our extensive network of fantastic local producers.

We support those suppliers in every way we can — buying from them season after season, and championing what they make through our menus, our hampers and our social media.
