ABOUT CORRY

With over 15 years' experience in professional kitchens, I now create restaurant-quality dining experiences in private homes, holiday retreats and exclusive venues across Scotland.

Every menu is thoughtfully designed around the people you're bringing together-using seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and a genuine passion for great hospitality.

Hospitality is at the heart of everything I do.

KIND WORDS

What our clients say.

“Chef Corry from Take a Chef was a delight. We were initially uncertain about whether working through an online platform would provide us a catered home cooked gourmet meal on our travels - but it ended up being a huge success. Everything from the planning and preparation to the meal itself was perfect. Chef Corry went above and beyond to ensure every detail was covered and our meal was excellent, and also aligned with our dietary specifications and preferences. We highly recommend the Take a Chef service and Chef Corry. Thank you!

“Corry and his partner Rachel prepared a 5-course tasting menu, based around good quality Scottish produce, for my 60th birthday celebration. We were a party of 8 food enthusiasts with fairly high expectations and they did not disappoint in any aspect. The dishes were imaginative, visually appealing and made with excellent products. The service was excellent and they left the kitchen in pristine condition. Highly recommended. A memorable evening.

Gerry, Ballachulish

“It was fantastic to have Corry cook for us to celebrate my 50th Birthday, he made it a really special and memorable night. Everything was perfect from the first message and menu suggestions right through to every bite of food. Corry kept me up to date with how everything would work and both he and Rachel were so lovely and looked after us so well. The food was beautifully presented, amazing quality and cooked to perfection. I really can't speak more highly of Corry and would recommend him to make any event special.
