Private dining, delivered to your door
Restaurant-calibre private dining, cooked and served in the comfort of your own home, by Chef Gergo Barna and his team.
Our story
Lamb Lettuce Catering crafts culinary experiences that elevate any event. It was founded by Gergo Barna, a culinary professional with two decades in the industry.
Gergo's journey began in the kitchens of the Gordon Ramsay Group and the Savoy Hotel in London, where a passion for fresh, locally sourced ingredients took root. That dedication to quality and flavour remains the cornerstone of everything the team serves today.
Whether it is a wedding, an intimate dinner for two, a milestone birthday or a corporate gathering, the team delivers a bespoke menu tailored to your vision, from Mediterranean-inspired plates to inventive modern fusion, all finished to a restaurant standard in your own kitchen or venue.
What we cook
Every event starts with a menu consultation. Courses are written for your guests, your occasion and the kitchen we will be cooking in, not chosen from a printed list.
Gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, allergies and intolerances are designed into the menu from the start, so nobody at the table is handed a lesser plate.
Cooking, plating and table service are ours. So is the washing up. The kitchen is handed back clean: the detail guests mention most often in reviews.
Asked for again and again

The team
Founder & head chef
Two decades in professional kitchens, including time with the Gordon Ramsay Group and the Savoy Hotel in London. Gergo brings restaurant-level technique and a wide range of influences, from Mediterranean classics through to modern fusion, directly into clients' homes across Sussex and beyond.
Coffee & front of house
Margarita began her coffee journey in Vinnitsa, Ukraine, then moved to London and on to Sussex. She now runs a polished front-of-house and beverage service of rich espresso, creamy lattes and specialty brews, alongside the meticulous hospitality that holds an evening together.
Front of house & wine pairing
Viktor's hospitality career spans Budapest, Barcelona, the Canary Islands and Bordeaux, where he developed a deep appreciation for fine wine and pairing. Time in London added a cosmopolitan finish to his style.
I am excited to share my journey, insights and passion for the culinary arts with you.
From recent events
In our guests' words
Absolutely superb, friendly chef, who with his wife, ensured we enjoyed the most marvellous evening. I would use Gergo again.
Had a family dinner for 11. Gergo's food was amazing. Beef Wellington and truffle mash was one of the best I've ever had.
Chef Gergo stepped in at very short notice. With only 24 hours to prepare, he was able to create an amazing five-course meal which everyone in our party loved.
Super efficient, friendly and organised. Helpful at the stage of booking and making menu choices that suited everyone and all intolerances, whilst not compromising on the dining experience.
The white chocolate mousse is still being talked about the next day.
We had a fabulous experience with Chef Gergo. He arrived exactly on time and left the kitchen immaculate. It was a perfect way to have a dinner party at home.
Fantastic event. We booked fairly last minute, about 48 hours before, but Chef Gergo was a true pro.
Chef Gergo's food was amazing. Highlight was definitely the beef Wellington.
