Savour the Flavour

Hello, I'm Gary.

For over 15 years I've been cooking nourishing vegetarian and plant-based food for retreats, workshops, celebrations and special gatherings. I believe food should do more than simply fill us up – it should bring people together, support wellbeing and create moments of joy.

Inspired by flavours from around the world, I create vibrant meals that are wholesome, satisfying and full of life. Whether I'm cooking for a yoga retreat, a wellness weekend, a birthday celebration or an intimate gathering, my intention is always the same: to serve delicious food that leaves people feeling happy, nourished and cared for.

Nourishing Food for Meaningful Gatherings

There is something special about sharing good food with good people.

At Green Spoon, every menu is thoughtfully prepared using fresh ingredients, colourful vegetables, fragrant herbs and plenty of love. My style of cooking combines comfort, creativity and nutrition, allowing guests to enjoy meals that feel both indulgent and deeply nourishing.

Food has the power to support connection, rest and wellbeing, and I feel grateful to contribute that energy to every event I cater.

Personal Chef Experiences

Sometimes the most memorable meals are shared around a table with a small group of people you care about.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, hosting friends or simply wanting a unique dining experience at home, I can create a personalised menu that suits your tastes, dietary needs and budget.

While you relax and enjoy quality time with your guests, I'll take care of everything in the kitchen, serving vibrant, nourishing food that brings people together and makes the occasion feel truly special.

Retreat Catering

Yoga retreats, wellness weekends and transformational gatherings deserve food that supports the experience.

I work closely with retreat organisers to create menus that complement the intention of the retreat, providing nourishing meals that energise the body while feeling comforting and satisfying.

Whether you're hosting a birthday, family gathering or special celebration, I can create a menu that helps make the occasion memorable.

From colourful sharing platters and mezze spreads to hearty mains and delicious desserts, every dish is designed to bring smiles to the table.
