Forget bland skewers and basic sausages — make way for a bold, refined, and irresistibly gourmet barbecue. This season, we’re falling for wood-fired cooking that flirts with fine dining. At KTCHN, the grill becomes a playground where confit vegetables, aged meats, and fragrant seafood come together for a feast as beautiful as it is delicious.
Craving a gourmet escape in the open air? Let us whisk you away to a new-generation BBQ, where flavour meets finesse.
Barbecue isn’t just about impromptu picnics with friends anymore. Today, it’s a full-on culinary experience where ingredients and plating are treated with the same care. At KTCHN, BBQ is seen as a true celebration of flavour.
The secret? Ultra-fresh produce, perfectly mastered cooking techniques, and bold flavour pairings that awaken the senses. Think wild garlic grilled asparagus, melt-in-your-mouth eggplant with tahini and pomegranate, grilled halloumi with avocado salsa… Veggies take center stage and elevate every plate.
As for meat and seafood, it’s all about character: Irish beef, spiced scampi, smoked Iberico pork… Far from your traditional barbecue, KTCHN brings that refined, gastronomic twist we can’t get enough of.
If you still think barbecues are all about meat, think again! Vegetables have that extra something when kissed by the flames — a hint of caramelisation, an irresistible smoky flavour… and just like that, the magic happens.
Our top picks?
Paired with punchy sauces like a fiery chimichurri or an ultra-fresh sauce vierge, these grilled veggies just might steal the spotlight from the meat!
You Can’t Talk BBQ Without Mentioning the Star of the Show: Perfectly Grilled, Top-Quality Meat
It’s impossible to talk about barbecue without giving the spotlight to the true star: beautifully sourced, perfectly cooked meat.
At KTCHN, we focus on exceptional cuts — Irish beef tomahawk, lamb rack with thyme and confit garlic, smoked Iberico pork… each bite is bold, tender, and bursting with flavour. And for those drawn to the sea, we’ve got plenty to love: herb-infused prawns, grilled octopus, or shellfish bathed in herb butter.
The Touch That Changes Everything? Precision cooking down to the degree, and subtle seasoning that lets the product speak for itself. All paired with fresh, colourful salads for a true explosion of flavour.
A great barbecue is all about the sides — and that includes what’s in your glass. A well-chosen natural wine can elevate those smoky, caramelised flavours to a whole new level.
At KTCHN, the barbecue becomes a moment of pure exception — where fire enhances flavour and every plate turns into a work of art. A culinary experience that blends indulgence, aesthetics, and high-quality ingredients — perfect for a private event or a stylish garden party.

On this International Women’s Rights Day, we celebrate the women who shape the world of event gastronomy. While cooking has historically been associated with women in private households, the professional restaurant industry has long been dominated by men. Today, things are changing, and we are proud to shine a light on the women who make our events extraordinary at KTCHN.
At KTCHN, we are fortunate to be guided by three inspiring talents:
Despina Antypa – A creative pastry chef, she transforms every dessert into an unforgettable sensory experience.
Marie-Victoire Reynders – A visionary manager, she orchestrates every detail with passion and precision.
Laure Genonceaux – A talented chef who elevates ingredients into true culinary masterpieces. Winner of the Be Cheffe competition in November 2024, she embodies excellence in event gastronomy.
Despite progress, women remain underrepresented in leadership positions and continue to face major challenges in the restaurant and event industry:
These numbers highlight that despite the incredible talent and expertise of female chefs, pastry chefs, and entrepreneurs, inequalities persist. However, many initiatives are emerging to recognize and promote female talent.
Fortunately, more and more movements and events aim to increase the visibility of women in the gastronomy and event industry:
Recognizing women’s contributions in the kitchen and event industry requires concrete actions:
At KTCHN, we are committed to valuing all expertise, regardless of gender. Talent knows no boundaries, and our events are proof of that!
We believe in an event gastronomy industry where everyone can thrive and express their art.
We encourage women to take their rightful place in the demanding world of event catering, proving every day that culinary excellence has no gender.
Today, and every day, we celebrate the women who inspire, create, and lead with passion.
Want to experience the talent of our team? Book KTCHN for your next event and be amazed by a bold and inclusive gastronomy!

Sustainability and romance can harmoniously intertwine! Explore our 2024 Trends Guide for an unforgettable eco-friendly wedding.
Traditionally festive, weddings can unfortunately be a source of excessive energy consumption, time, money, and carbon emissions. Choices such as single-use dresses, meals leading to waste, and unnecessary travel contribute to this ecological footprint. However, an emerging trend towards eco-responsible weddings is gaining momentum. Here is an overview of the latest trends transforming wedding celebrations into more environmentally-friendly events.
Opt for a menu highlighting local and seasonal ingredients, thereby reducing carbon footprint while offering an authentic culinary experience.” Seasonal menus support local producers and ensure the freshness of ingredients.
The eco-chic approach is gaining ground in decoration. Choices such as reusable items, recycled materials, and seasonal flowers create an elegant ambiance while minimizing environmental impact
Sustainable attire is increasingly in vogue, reflecting a commitment to sustainability without compromising style. Dresses and suits made from eco-friendly materials or by local designers are at the heart of this trend, and why not consider a second-hand designer dress?
Choose an eco-responsible site for celebrating your wedding. The choice of a single location for both the ceremony and reception also reduces travel and associated emissions.
When creating your wedding registry, consider including items from companies that support sustainable practices. Items made from recycled materials, ethically manufactured, or promoting a sustainable lifestyle are all possible options.
Responsible waste management is an integral part of eco-friendly weddings. Solutions such as biodegradable tableware, recycling, and waste reduction help minimize the environmental impact of the event.
When choosing your honeymoon destination, prioritize options closer to home or consider more sustainable modes of transportation than flying. Also look for accommodations committed to sustainable practices.
Organizing an eco-friendly wedding is a reflection of the values you want to convey. Remember that every little gesture makes a difference and it’s not necessary to be perfect in every aspect.

He’s popped the question, or maybe you did, and now you’re diving into the big preparations. We know, the sheer number of things to do can be overwhelming at first. It’s a bit like facing a live lobster and not knowing how to cook it… That’s why we’ve decided to help you out. We’ve gathered the 7 main aspects of your wedding so you know where to start.
At first, it’s necessary to know how much you can invest in the most beautiful day of your life. Don’t worry, you don’t need a crazy amount. The goal is not to get into debt for the rest of your life but to organize a wedding that reflects your personality.
Only you know if you prefer to invest a little more in the caterer, the photographer, or even the wedding dress. Do your calculations.
This step will put the organization of your wedding to the test (we know what we’re talking about). Mr. wants to invite his great aunt, but if he does that, you also want to invite Uncle Paul or your distant cousin Alfred… Suffice it to say that you’ll have to compromise a bit.
However, this step is crucial because based on this number, you will be able to embark on the search for an event venue to host your wedding. Indeed, this venue will depend on several things, but mainly on the number of people you invite to your wedding. Don’t worry, this step is not as terrible as it sounds!
It’s time to agree on the date of your wedding celebration. Start by determining the season you want (winter has its charm too, as explained in our last article). Then, use the funnel technique to target together 2 dates that would suit you.
Why choose 2 possible dates to organize your wedding? Just to be prepared. You never know if the venue of your dreams is booked on the first date but available at another time, it could be a jackpot for you!
This won’t be easy. Whether on an island, in a castle, in a former army building… There’s something for every taste! It’s up to you to find the event venue that you fall in love with, that will make you dream, and that can accommodate the desired number of guests. You need to think about it quickly because you must reserve it promptly. Generally, it is booked 9 to 12 months in advance for the high season and 3 to 6 months for the low season (winter).
When choosing your wedding venue, you need to be careful because there are 2 types of event venues: those with free caterers (you can bring in the caterer of your choice) or those without free caterers (the venue requires working with specific caterers).
When venues don’t allow free caterers, the goal is not to make your life more difficult, but the venue’s intention is to offer you a provider who knows the place inside out.
An important choice not to be overlooked.
How many times have you not left a wedding thinking that the meal wasn’t great because it lacked taste, seasoning, or the visual wasn’t up to par? You don’t want your guests to think the same when leaving the table on your big day? So, you need to dive into the search for caterers without further ado. Make a small summary of the caterers in your region, ask to see what they have already done before.
Once you have chosen, ask your caterer to prepare a test dinner so you can see the plates/dishes that will be served at the table.
Want something different? Don’t want a sit-down meal? Why not bring in food trucks (yes, yes, we’ve already prepared an article on that)? Something to leave a lasting impression and create a different atmosphere for your wedding.
You will need to find a photographer who meets your expectations. Don’t hesitate to look at their work on Instagram or their website. It is important that their way of taking pictures matches your way of seeing things so that you are not disappointed with the result.
Dress, combination, skirt, pants, you search, hunt, spot to come across THE piece of your dreams.
Don’t worry, it takes time, it’s normal! You only get married once; you must feel the most beautiful.

The holiday season almost came to an end a month ago, bringing with it its share of annual celebrations for businesses. But other occasions throughout the year can also give rise to the creation of an event, which often proves to be a powerful communication tool for the brand or company for which it is organized.
Discover without delay 10 reasons, sometimes obvious and sometimes unknown, to organize an event for your company.
In many companies, work schedules and the division of staff into different departments often leave very little time for meetings. Organizing an internal party will allow you to bring everyone together in a friendly atmosphere, away from the hassles of professional life, and create a real corporate spirit that can be beneficial at all levels.
A corporate event is, of course, an opportunity to relax among colleagues, but it is also and above all often the ideal opportunity to share valuable information about the life of the company. Well-informed employees about the environment in which they work have all the tools to perform their jobs optimally and become convincing ambassadors!
Need new suppliers? Investors for a new ambitious project? Organize an event bringing together all the players in your industry in a pleasant setting to introduce them to your company and its projects! In this more relaxed atmosphere conducive to exchanges, contacts are established much more easily and will undoubtedly bring you many proposals.
It’s not just about creating new relationships; you also need to maintain them! Pleasant meetings at fixed intervals will allow you to keep in touch with your partners and keep your address book up to date.
Your product or service is revolutionary, incredible, and indispensable, but unfortunately, no one knows about it? No need to panic; the solution is right here: develop a pleasant presentation of your company and its products and showcase it at an event with carefully chosen guests. The impact will undoubtedly be felt!
Product launches are one of the most regularly organized corporate events. Carefully planned, in a suitable location, and with the right guests (press, influential bloggers, potential buyers…), this event will undoubtedly be one of the main guarantors of the success of your new product or service!
Nowadays, with the explosive expansion of the use of social media, everyone can share their experiences publicly and instantly. By organizing a grand event, your delighted guests will undoubtedly share their impressions and satisfaction, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on your company’s brand image.
Offer an exceptional moment to your employees or partners to thank them for their investment in the success of your company! They can only be satisfied.
Also, do not hesitate to gather them to celebrate together the significant moments in the life of your company; company anniversary, retirement of an iconic staff member… every occasion is good to come together!
Over the years, the press files of companies become heavier and are often not so up-to-date. To update these contacts and create new ones, do not hesitate to take advantage of a novelty in your company to present it to the press specialized in your field of activity and, at the same time, meet a crowd of journalists.
Has your company recently acquired new offices? A new factory? A new point of sale? There is nothing better than organizing an event to introduce your new premises to your employees and business partners! This type of action allows them not only to discover the locations but also to give a dynamic image to your company.
