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.
Just wanted to say a really big thank you once again for the whole weekend – it was everything we had imagined and planned for and so much more, so thank you for helping us put it all together. Obviously, we had an absolutely amazing time, with lots of special and happy memories but we also received so much positive feedback about the food, planning, staff, look / feel / set-up etc. of the whole thing, which really did make it such an amazing few days and I know every single person had a great time. Can’t say thank you enough!
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!
We had the most incredible wedding at Château de Arlens in May 2024, and one of the standout highlights was the exceptional catering by Louisa Hallewell and her team at Farm 2 Table Kitchen. From start to finish, Louisa brought an incredible level of passion, creativity, and attention to detail that made our wedding feast truly unforgettable. Every dish was crafted with the freshest, locally sourced ingredients, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Our guests are still raving about the incredible food, from the delicious canapés to the perfectly executed main courses and indulgent desserts. The menu was a perfect reflection of our love for quality, seasonal ingredients and thoughtful cooking. Beyond the food, Louisa and her team provided seamless service with warmth and professionalism, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. She took the time to understand our vision and executed it flawlessly. If you're looking for a caterer who combines incredible food with an impeccable experience, we couldn't recommend Farm 2 Table Kitchen highly enough. Thank you, Louisa, for making our wedding meal so special – it was everything we dreamed of and more! Bertie & Stefanie Château de Arlens – May 2024
Alex and I would once again like to express our IMMENSE gratitude for you, your team, all of your hard work, and the delicious fare that it produced at every single event 🙏🏽. From the warm welcome on your farm and in your kitchen, to your willingness and excitement to create a custom menu, to the many hours you kindly invested in recipe testing and event coaching, to the all star lineup of non-stop deliciousness at the wedding itself, everything about working with you and the Little Black Pig/ Farm2Table has been delightful, from first bite to last. Thank you so much for supplying the best part of the weekend and making our wedding truly unforgettable
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.
