I first met Steph when I was looking to redesign my menus and focus on some lighter and healthier options. Steph worked with us closely to develop dishes to suit our customers’ demands as well as introducing a smoothie and fresh pressed juice selection. The items we put on our menus were very well received and some were so popular they were hard to take off the menu. I found Steph to be very knowledgeable, easy to work with and added great value to my business.”
