A passion for real food
Louisa's passion for food began when she started baking with her grandmother at just five years old. Since then, she has become an accomplished chef, training in France in cheesemaking, butchery, charcuterie, preserving, fermenting, and most recently she qualified as a chef patissière.
Louisa's idea to create the Farm to Table Kitchen came from her desire to marry her principles of using homegrown food with her skills as a chef. Her catering business has evolved since arriving in France 14 years ago. Her farm Little Black Pig grows an array of fruits and vegetables - including edible flowers! She also raises chickens and the famous porc noir pigs, local to the area which are renowned for their delicious meat.
She is committed to ensuring ingredients are sourced locally, so will always try to find delicious alternatives to any ingredients which can only be found outside of France.
We could not have had our wedding without Louisa! She guided us through the entire planning process, of not just the food menu but the entire wedding from electricity supply to toilets. No question was too small and she was always ready to accommodate, which was so helpful as we were planning our wedding from abroad. She also found our entire service staff, and everything worked so smoothly over both the wedding day and the lunch on the following day. The food was such a highlight and enjoyed by all. We felt we really sold 'the french dream' to our guests. We also had plenty of delicious leftovers that kept us going through the clear up process.
Thoroughly and highly recommend Louisa Hallewell’s culinary skills. Her cooking tastes fantastic and looks amazing. I am truly confident that Louisa is sure to do well, so my suggestion would be not to hesitate, just get in touch, chat your needs and hopes through with her and confirm your booking as speedily as possible!
Farm to Table Kitchen provided the catering for our work retreat at the beautiful Château Lacoste. Louisa totally understood the needs of our group from day one and came up with exciting, authentic menus that would showcase the best of Southern French cooking and ingredients. Her communication throughout was excellent. All the food - two lunches and two three-course dinners - was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The addition of a serving of the local 'Floc' aperatif was a lovely touch. The team loved it and the team looking after us on site couldn't have been nicer or more attentive. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Farm to Table for anyone in the region looking for great food delivered with a smile
Just an email to say thanks so much for all the delicious food throughout the weekend! Everything was perfect and guests loved it all! You're a star!
From the early days of planning to the day of the wedding, Louisa was the most professional person to work with. She and her wonderful team recently catered for our daughter's wedding. The venue was our home and garden and Louisa took care of everything in a very calm and efficient manner. The meal itself was amazing and enjoyed and talked about by all the guests. We did not have to worry about anything. All had been carefully thought out and organised. We would absolutely recommend Louisa any time. Thank You from all The Dixons and our new Japanese Family.
