“As a youngster I knew exactly what I wanted to do in life way before I left school. I loved food and wanted to be a chef and I loved planes and wanted to be a pilot”

Martin chose the former and at 16 ventured to Paris for an apprenticeship in top hotels, starting at the Michelin-starred Rotisserie at the Intercontinental Hotel. After a successful 14-year career spanning 3 continents and owning a London restaurant, Martin transitioned to sourcing ingredients for luxury brands such as Harrods amongst others, and top chefs. With a focus on farm-to-table freshness, his food comes directly from farms to your plate. In 2019, he founded The Menu Guru, merging his passion for fine foods with culinary excellence, and hasn’t looked back since, continuing to innovate.

“I love what we do, I am cooking great food alongside a great team – I never quite made it to becoming a pilot but at least I’m close to aviation everyday of my life. I have the best of both worlds!”

We understand the unique challenges flight attendants and operators face in delivering top-notch inflight dining. You need a fast, efficient, and reliable caterer who can provide everything necessary, from cooking and reheating to plating and finishing touches.

We ensure the best ingredients are perfectly cooked with complete HACCP procedures, earning us a five-star food standards rating. Our team is fully trained in allergen protocols, ensuring safety and quality. Friendly and flexible, we’re based at London Oxford Airport, allowing us to deliver to all UK airports and FBOs. We reach Farnborough, Luton, Northolt, and Birmingham within an hour and Stansted, Biggin Hill, and London City in just over two hours. We pride ourselves on being there when you need us, bending over backwards to meet your needs and exceed expectations.

With us, you can have absolute confidence in the quality and safety of your inflight catering.

Our menu has been crafted to deliver the finest inflight dining experience. Our team of chefs have designed a comprehensive selection of global dishes from exquisite snacks and starters to multi course meals.

Our food is not pretentious and overly fussy but is ‘honest’, with generous size portions while remaining refined when it needs to be.

Our ingredients are sourced from local farms where possible and, having spent years sourcing ingredients, have built a portfolio of growers, producers and wholesalers that is the envy of others. Procuring challenging ingredients at short notice is what we are good at and, unlike many other caterers, we do not hold a bounty of frozen foods. If it is not available fresh or not good enough we would prefer to suggest a fresh suitable alternative.

From experience, we recognise that many of our clients already know exactly what they wish to eat and we remain entirely flexible. With The Menu Guru you get what you want to eat, when you want to eat it.

The Menu Guru have extensive catering experience with our team members having worked on high profile events such as The Ryder Cup, Wimbledon, Formula One and Salon Prive.

With decades of experience we deliver top quality customised culinary solutions for Corporate events, exclusive private events and dinner parties, FBO presentations, Board meetings, private yachts and much more. Please contact us for details.
