“Ellie has been catering for my Yoga Retreat days for about 5 years and her food is exceptional! She creates the most beautiful seasonal feasts which are a delight for all of the senses, every dish is a work of art! She so brilliantly meets the needs of all my guests and any dietary requirements they have creating a menu which includes all. She is a delight to work with and I now book my events around her availability!”

“Ellie at Wild Ginger very kindly catered a five day teacher training course I hosted back in the summer. The food was absolutely delicious and Ellie’s menu ensured that there were plenty of different options every day. The food was plentiful and Ellie was so skillful in catering for all the different dietary restrictions and preferences. The food was prepared for us every day in time for us to be finishing our long morning sessions. If you’re hosting a retreat, I cannot recommend Ellie highly enough. She makes everything look effortless! Thank you”

"I first experienced Ellie's fabulous food as a participant on a day retreat.The menu was not only interesting and original but looked beautiful and tasted amazing! When I co-hosted a 3 day residential retreat, Ellie was the only choice. She took time to understand our goals and supported the weekend with a beautifully curated menu. Coming together over meals is an integral part of a retreat and the fabulous, nourishing food Ellie provided with such care was spot on and appreciated by absolutely everyone."

"I first tried Ellie's food at a pilates event and loved it. I then asked her to cater for my husband's 50th. We discussed the menu, budget and serving and she had great suggestions and was really good at communicating with me. The food was amazing, inventive, interesting but most importantly delicious! Would thoroughly recommend!"

"Just want to say thank you so much for providing the canapés for our party. Catering for 60 isn’t easy (especially without a proper kitchen)! But they were beautifully presented and everyone commented on how delicious they were. Thanks again."

“I was delighted to have Wild Ginger cater two meals for my weekend retreat, and the food was truly exceptional. Every dish was beautifully presented, incredibly flavoursome, and thoughtfully prepared using fresh, nourishing ingredients. The vegetarian menu was creative, vibrant, and absolutely delicious. My guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food. Wild Ginger's attention to detail and passion for great food shone through in every meal. I would wholeheartedly recommend for retreats, wellness events, and special gatherings.”

“Ellie created our wedding menu, which was the highlight of our day. She has huge knowledge and understanding of flavours and ingredients from all cultures. She is one of those rare cooks who can balance the most delicate flavours, and put meals together with real artistry. Not only will it be the most delicious and satisfying meal, but also beautiful and mouthwatering. I can’t recommend her highly enough and look forward eating her amazing dishes every chance I get.”

“Ellie caters for the yoga retreat days I run and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She brings such a warm, friendly energy, alongside an incredible talent for creating food that is nourishing and delicious. She is a wizard when it comes to flavour combinations and she thoughtfully aligns each menu with the season and the theme of the retreat. Her food feels creative, fresh and beautifully considered every time. She is also both flexible and professional, nothing is ever too much trouble, and she instinctively understands what works for a retreat setting. Her food has become such a special part of our retreat days.”

"It’s good to be able to give Ellie at Wild Ginger some genuine and heartfelt appreciation for the delicious feast she prepare prepared for the 80th birthday celebration we’d planned. There were abundant dishes for the 80 guests and many “wows” from delighted family and friends. We had reassuring discussions in advance with Ellie, who gave great advice on what to select from the many choices available. Although Ellie‘s main fame comes from catering for retreats, we can testify that her talents and abilities can easily cover birthdays, weddings, and any other celebrations that need a creative & expert hand. Ellie and her Team were so friendly and amenable… a perfect way to cope with a large event and actually be able to enjoy the whole process too… many thanks, Ellie!"
