Behind the Scenes
Kitchen Team
Our full time kitchen brigade is headed up by Dean and is made up of hard working and passionate individuals. All of the team have experience across different areas of hospitality but have nestled into the event side of the industry, bringing with them a wealth of experience. From rustling up thousands of canapes each week and open flame cooking of Tomahawk steaks, to wood fired pizza ovens and the best smashed burgers, our team can do it all, and they are a pretty smiley bunch too
Food they Love : anything they don’t have to make
Food they don’t love : a bad Sunday lunch

Nat joined Eat the Street 6 years ago and we would be lost without her. Not only is she an exceptional on the day event manager, but she runs the logistics team like a well oiled machine. Getting everything delivered and set up at the right place at the right time and then all back to HQ week in week out is no mean feat, yet she does it effortlessly and always with a smile on her face.
