About Paul JowettThe Chef DirectorFrom my earliest memories I remember rustling up homemade burgers with my dad and I have to thank him for everything he taught me when it comes to cooking. He taught me about flavour combinations, letting your creative juices flow and not always sticking to "the recipe". After all, most things taste better if you do it yourself, don't they?
I'm Paul Jowett and I'm the private chef and chef director at Paul Jowett, Private Chef and Event Catering. I'm delighted to be able to create dazzling menus and cook amazing food for my clients and I hope you like what you see and hopefully want to book me for your next private dinner party, special celebration and event. |
Meet The Team
That Make It Happen
Although we are a small business that believes in producing incredible food for special occasions and events, we are known for going above and beyond for our customers and we pride ourselves on a 5* level of service. People are at the centre of everything we do - from our customers, to team members and our amazing suppliers as well.
As the Chef Director, I genuinely care about making each occasion personal and getting to know you as people rather than customers. Delivering the ultimate culinary experience is my passion as a chef and it's important to me that the members of our team feel the same. Being a part of every occasion we deliver is a privilege for us all at Paul Jowett, Private Chef and Event Catering.

How It All StartedFor Paul JowettCooking has always been a huge part of my family. My father Anthony is my biggest inspiration and he was also an Executive Chef before he sadly passed away. I owe my career to him and I know that he will be incredibly proud of my achievements so far as a chef.
His passion has become mine and I now follow in his footsteps with my own private chef and event catering company. |
Being A Private ChefIs My PassionI've worked in fantastic kitchens for over a decade and I hope you agree my food looks and tastes great. I realised a few years ago that there was a gap in the market to bring my style of food to you in a different way and you don't need to visit a restaurant to experience it.
That's where this all started and over the last few years, I've cooked for many customers in their homes and at events too. |
