I’m taking orders for Christmas Beef Wellingtons! They’re made using the best beef in the land, therefore they are rather pricey. I still sell them for you all to cook on Christmas Day as I know some of you would still like to buy them!

For those who don’t know the spiel, for the last 8 years I have been making Beef Wellingtons, and Vegetarian Wellingtons, at Christmas time. I prepare it all and hand it over ready to pop into the oven on Christmas Day. I also print out cooking instructions for however you would like it cooked. I can make them as big or as small as you like as you pay by the portion.

They are £25 a portion. A Wellington for 4, for example, would be £100. Vegetable ones are £10 a portion, and filled with lovely white winter root vegetables.

They can be collected in Margate on Christmas Eve and your order must be in by November, at the latest. To order, just send me a message here and I will confirm your order and add you to the list!

Eight years ago, I got my driving licence. I was 31, and was working 100+ hours a week for about 15 years so driving was never something I could work towards. My extremely short maternity leave gave me a moment to step back and wonder what I’m doing with my life.

I decided to start a catering business. Just while the kids are little, maybe? Who knows! Well eight years have gone by and you guys have kept me BUSY. But more importantly, I do something different every week. I have challenges thrown my way constantly, and I get to do things I want to do. Things that give me so much satisfaction.

I do feel quite emotional looking at chefs working in restaurant kitchens. It was a huge part of my life and it’s a lifestyle that’s extremely tough and often rewarding. But do I regret leaving? No. I see my family everyday. I don’t whisper goodbye while they’re still asleep anymore. And I don’t come home trying not to wake anybody up as often as I used to.

Thank you JLC for giving me a semblance of a life. And thank you to all the people who make it possible. Family, friends, and my incredible staff. Happy eighth 🎉

Heading into my final year in this bloody brilliant decade. My 30s gave me a semblance of a balanced life with JLC. Also, much, much happiness!

I celebrate every birthday because, well if you don’t know by now, it’s not my favourite restaurant in Margate, but in the world 💛🎂

The most glorious day for a wedding! 190 guests, singing, eating, dancing, eating, drinking, did I say eating?

I cooked for a very special birthday lunch today. It was for my first ever JLC customer, almost eight years ago! 😊

I made her most favourite dessert, Îles Flottantes, or Oeufs à la Neige, or Floating Islands! You may have heard of it. Meringue quenelles, poached in milk, light as air, sat atop Sauce Anglaise, drizzled with a crackly caramel and a few toasted almonds sprinkled over the top. Very simple, and also, deceptively technical 👌🏼

So sweet, you’d have thought something really tart would fare better - passion fruit, kalamansi, grapefruit - all wonderful! But the sweet strawberry is an undeniable superpairing!

Vanilla and Raspberry, served with Peaches - a version of Peach Melba of sorts I suppose! One of the guests (age 14) said it was the best thing he’d ever eaten, and nervously asked for another. A shy teenage boy, but didn’t allow his shyness to leave him full of regret - respect 🤙
