Nina is fantastic - everyone took her number after the dinner party for their own events. She is very friendly, warm, professional, enthusiastic and speedy with an eye for detail. We arranged for Nina to work a couple of extra hours as it was a big task hosting 14 people for dinner - we were lucky that she was flexible to do this. Nina took control in the kitchen, allowing me to enjoy the afternoon/evening with our guests. She helped me with, or more accurately she did most of the the set-up, preparation, cooking, serving, clearing and washing up, plus the rest. She is a great cook and presents the food beautifully. Her crispy roast potatoes and creamed leeks were a hit! Nina is an absolute superstar, we will definitely be engaging her again and referring her details on - we all need a Nina in our lives!! Thanks so much for all of your help and your bright and bubbly personality.

I contacted Samantha through Airtasker as a private chef for a surprise birthday dinner for two. Samantha provided us with a beautiful dinner which was French inspired.

I'd highly recommend her for any catering job.

Bartender / drinks waiter for dinner event tonight

$180

Berrilee NSW, Australia

3rd Jan 2025

You will need your own transport as public transport is very limited here. Suburb is Berrilee NSW. We’re having a farewell dinner for a staff member of 25 years moving interstate. The dinner is catered and will be for 24 adults and about 3 kids. Looking for someone to serve drinks (we would supply them) and offer them around the room, refill glasses etc. help clean up, move dishes in between courses etc. I will have pre-made some cocktails in batches hut they would need to be shaken with ice to chill down and also to add some theatre. Otherwise there will the typical beer, wine and soft drinks and water too. Keep people’s drinks full, check in if they want something else, possibly assist the chefs carrying any food plates through if needed. People will arrive from around 6 Pm so you would need to arrive prior and while the start would be the busiest and slow down as the dinner goes on. Some helping out with tidying up between courses, collecting and stacking plates (not necessarily cleaning them) involved. I think it would be safe to put an end time of 10:00. So basically from around 5:30 - 10:00pm. Proposing $40 per hour. Open to offers

Penny was an absolute joy to have at our event and meant we could really sit back and relax knowing she had everything covered! Would most definitely recommend and would hire again in an instant
