About Us

My’lkd was created and is run by Mark Apsey, a chef with a wealth of experience having been head chef at a handful of high end establishments across the UK. Based in Reading, Berkshire, my’lkd is a 5* food hygiene rated group of private chefs and small event caterer.

Having worked his way up the ranks in a handful of Michelin starred restaurants working for chefs such as Nathan Outlaw, John Campbell and Mark Jordan, Mark was promoted to be Alan Murchison’s Head Chef at L’ortolan; Readings only Michelin Starred Restaurant at the time, and ranked in the top 50 UK Restaurants.

Following a spell here, Mark returned to Cornwall as the head chef of The Idle Rocks in St Mawes. During this time the Sunday Times listed the hotel as the ‘4th Best Restaurant By The Sea’ and ‘The UK’s Best Sunday Lunch’, whilst also being shortlisted in the ‘Best Dining Hotel in the South West’ category in the Trenchermans Guide.

Allergies?

My’lkd originally grew from a need for better options for those with food allergies, and has developed a number of first class recipes and techniques to cater for every diet without the need to ever feel left out. Please let us know when booking if you have any special requirements. Unless otherwise requested, we are a completely milk free business.

Reviews

We love reviews! The whole team enjoy hearing what you thought of your event with us, to help spread the message, or continually improve our service. We have found that the most helpful place to leave reviews is google, however social media reviews are also amazingly helpful, and gratefully received.

Gift Vouchers

Gift Vouchers are available for any of the services we offer, and can be the perfect gift for the foodie in your life.

Our Suppliers

We always try to buy from small local producers and suppliers, but are also conscious that sometimes you have to go further afield to buy the best. We understand how important it is to get the perfect ingredient for every dish. That is why we use C.A. Belcher & Son for our groceries, HG Walter for our butchery products, Kingfisher Brixham as our fishmonger and Ritter Courivaud as our fine ingredient pantry, as well as sourcing other products directly from producers
