It’s safe to say that it was a day of lessons, leading to the decision never to cook tortillas to order in the world’s smallest pan 😀

We’ve got an exciting collaboration going on with and a super tasty menu. Keep your eyes peeled for more info 🔥🔥🔥

One of the first weddings of the year we catered for was back in April for the awesome Charlie and Sophie, so it was a real treat to get an email with some amazing photos of their special day along with some words that really touched our heart.

We work incredibly hard on what we do, so to get such nice feedback months later really puts a skip in our step.

Once again, thank you for letting us be part of your day 😊 Norm & Iris 🤘🔥🤘🔥 Awesome photos by 🤘

So……5 years ago today Grate Catering and Events was born. I left working full time in an industry which I loved with all my heart, but in the end fell out of love with due to lots of reasons.

But my passion for good food and cooking still remained, and I wanted to have a go at doing it on my own.

The journey Grate has took has always been a bit of an organic one in the sense of how we identified ourselves and how we would cook.

It all started out with supper clubs right here at home. Then the fire element came into focus and this is where it has stayed.

We’ve met some amazing people’s on this journey who have helped us, guided us and given us support through some really tough times. For this I want to say thank you to all of you.

I also need to say that Grate would no longer be here if it wasn’t for the amazing talents of my amazing wife Iris. It sounds a bit cliche, but she really does put the flavour into grate.

There is more I want to say but I’ve gone on for too long now. But safe to say business is on the up and we’re loving it.

Norm
