SMAJ Foods

SMAJ Foods: fine dining catering and private dining in the northwest of England

SMAJ Foods is a catering company specialising in fine dining experiences brought to the location of the client's choice. Its approach centres on chef Samson, the project's founder, who has more than twenty years of professional experience. According to the company, his interest in culinary excellence began in the Scottish town of Auchterarder, where he honed his skills at the Michelin-starred restaurant of the Gleneagles Hotel. The company presents itself as one of the most sought-after private dining experiences in the northwest of the country.

Events covered

The service is designed for celebrations of different formats and sizes. The company lists private dinners, corporate events and weddings, among other similar occasions, as part of its remit. The client chooses the location and SMAJ Foods travels to cater the event, with menus tailored to the host and their guests.

Bespoke menus and team

The company works with bespoke menus: the client takes part in planning a proposal that suits their tastes. To this end, it provides a dedicated chef and an experienced team who see to diners' needs throughout the celebration. The company maintains that the result is an event that guests will find hard to forget.

Locally sourced produce

SMAJ Foods states that it buys directly from local farmers and fishermen under the 'Farm to Fork' concept, so that guests can enjoy the freshest possible produce. This local sourcing is one of the features the company highlights about its cooking.

How to book

The booking process is organised in three steps. First, availability for the date is checked by providing the event details; then a menu is chosen from the selection available for each type of occasion; and finally, the details and payment are confirmed. The company also publishes a cancellation policy among its information pages.

Chef's background

The project is a personal initiative of chef Samson, who brings to each service his knowledge of fine dining, attention to detail and a wide range of accumulated experiences. The company emphasises his hard-working, enthusiastic and motivated nature, and notes that this diversity of interests and professional experiences has helped shape his profile as a chef.
