Dear Fay,

Thank you very much for coming all the way to Yorkshire to give us such a wonderful evening yesterday. We all thoroughly enjoyed the lovely meal you prepared and Michael and I will remember the occasion for the rest of our lives , it was truly memorable. As for the pudding , I can’t describe the thrill it gave us when Ella bought it in and you came to tell us about it. Every course was truly delicious and as you might have realized by the plates, appreciated by us all. Please thank Ella for looking after us so well. We hope that the journey home was smoother than the journey here and that you weren’t too tired to enjoy todays “job”.

I hope Sunday can be a day of rest for you.

Thank you again for coming. I will write separately to EBLEX and commend you again.

With all good wishes

Hi Fay,

Just to say a big thankyou to both yourself and Ella for the fantastic night you created for us all.

We all very much enjoyed the food and service, it was magical! .... very tasty.

We all said that we would do this again, so i had better get entering more competitions!! or start saving!!

The article was not in the paper today, but will scan and send it to you when it is.

I hope your journey back was good.

Thank you again, i will have no hesitation in recommending you to all my friends.

 Kind regards

Thank you so much for the wonderful dinner party you prepared for my friends and family last Saturday.  Everything was perfect and I felt like

Hi Fay,
Just dropping you a note to say many thanks for your catering services for Helen's party. You and your staff were brilliant!
The party carried on until late and we were blessed with dry and fine weather right through. Helen really enjoyed the day being surrounded by family and friends.
We had several people commenting on how good the food was and a number of people took your business cards.
Again, thank you for helping to make it a special day.
Best regards

Thank you Fay for your lovely meal.
 
I cannot believe that I did not give a splendid tip to you before you left but I promise I will next time which will certainly be before Christmas.

To be honest with you, if you were to live nearer I would be using your cooking wonderfulness most days, especially now as I am about to put a Chicken Korma thing in the microwave...Yuck.

 
Best to you all.

Dear Fay,
Apologies for only just sending this - I have had a busy week at work and it kept slipping my mind.

I just want to send the biggest THANK YOU - you are amazing! You girls did such a wonderful job. Everyone is still saying how amazing your hamburgers (and everything else) are. Alex loved the ribs, I loved the corn burgers...fantastic. There was almost nothing left over by the end of the night.

If you ever need a recommendation - I would be more than happy to stand by my praise for you!

You made my birthday party a very happy one.

I think I have a few bowls and possibly the odd fork of yours. How would you like me to return to you?
Thank you again!

Just a quick note to say thank you very much for Saturday.  The dinner set off what was a fantastic weekend for my wife and everyone who was there enjoyed it immensely.  If any of my friends are looking to do something similar I will be sure to recommend you.
 
Thanks and regards.

Dear Fay,

Your presence on this mornings BBC News 24 seemed a God Send for the busy people who would love to use their gas hobs occasionally if only for the experience of the heat in the kitchen . It was so refreshing to hear for the first time a professional chef talking straight about results of cooking. It is about the satisfying our sensualities of look, smell and taste and not about hours of chopping. Bless you for that. It was just a confirmation of my first impression of you being an interesting person when i read your website that you are a colourfull character and an interesting person. As if there was another need for the crowning of it all, there was your mac.com address which is only used by real people. Bless you for being real. I needed to share this litle info-bubble you as those little unpredictable moments stimulated by coincidental people are the nuggets of happy moments of the internal smiles that makes our days enjoyable.

Fay,

Just a quick email to thank you for a wonderful meal on Saturday night. All our friends were so impressed, it really was a fabulous evening and the food was amazing.

Our friend B****by (the one with the lactose intolerance) was wondering if it might be possible to get recipes, particularly for the chocolate cake and the gravy. He doesn't get to eat cake and was so chuffed that he could eat it that he's taken all the leftovers home with him!

I enjoyed every dish so much that in all honestly I would like the recipes for all dishes, but am sure that is too cheeky!

If you have time and don't mind perhaps you could forward the recipes?

I look forward to hearing from you and thank you once again for a perfect evening.

Kindest regards,

Karen

Dear Fay,

Thankyou so much for your wonderful cooking and fine Stamina on Sunday.

I really would not of believed it could rain any more than last year yet the weather somehow managed it.

Everyone enjoyed the food you supplied.

One day I can assure you that it will be sunny on that bank holiday weekend I am just not sure which year.

The tent come marquee you were in blew over at 8.00pm so 10 rather inebriated  men had to gather up  poles and canvass and stuff it into bins.

The evening did not finish until well into the early hours

thanks again and we wish your family all the best

April 16th 2007

Good morning Fay,
Thanks for the note. We arrived back on Saturday and I have to say, it's been so nice to have the meals already prepped! So far we,ve had the bang-bang chicken and the beef vegetable stew with the potatoes. Oh, the cole slaw and hunger cake as well. Big thumbs up on all of it!! On the bread, would it be possible to do a brown grainy one (or just brown) instead of white?
No worries on the fruit and veg. I'm planning on being here this week and I figured it would take a few runs before we get it all straightened out anyway...

Thanks so much for your email.  They had a fantastic time and when we finally laid it out on the table they were delighted with it all.  The feedback was that they had a fabulous day mainly due to yourself, so am very appreciative.

 

Will definitely use you again Fay as think it was a great idea.  You are right in that we need to look at the kitchen aspect of it and I am having a meeting with Warwick today.

 

Thanks for your help in everything and will be in touch soon hopefully as we intend to push this as an onsite activity.

Morning Fay

 

Sorry for the delay in sending this email but we went on holiday the day after Tom’s birthday.  Anyhow, I just wanted to say a big thank you for doing Tom’s birthday meal and as you were probably aware it was a big hit with him and the other guests.

 

We will definitely be in touch if we need a Chef in the future!

 

Thanks again.

Hi Fay,
 
thank you for a really lovely meal Saturday night, everything was perfect, and having Alex to serve was an added bonus. Can I be cheeky and ask you for the recipe for the vegetable bake? it was gorgeous and we were all trying to work out what the mix was.
 
Thanks again

Hi Fay,

 Thank you so much again for helping us out on the show. Sorry it was a bit hap hazard when you first arrived. The BBC have been like that for the series so far, all 9 weeks! 

My series producers were really pleased with how the food turned out. It all looked great. I hope you don’t mind if I keep your details for any possible food items in the future.

 

Thanks again

Thomas’ idea of Power Lunches with Thomas and I, are a good one, we should progress this thought in the new year.
I am so pleased to have experienced your service at this level, in my own home, it is so personal, I now know exactly how to recommend you and hope to be able to treat friends with your food in the future too.

Dear Fay,

On behalf of RPM and Clarion we would like to thank you for all your hard work and enthusiasm in your presentations at the Caravan and Outdoor show. The recipes and meals were amazing and enjoyed by all (especially us) - we feel that these demonstrations truly added to the content of the Medieval Forest.

We would be very grateful if you could let us know when the recipes are on the website - myself and Harriet are definitely going to make the French toast for Christmas breakfast.

Best regards

I hope you are well! did you enjoy your day with us in Hereford?
More importantly..would you repeat it? ;)

The feedback I got from the students was fantastic, you really opened

So, from all of us and the students THANK YOU!

Just read your interview in Womans World. As my late father would have said, you are one ballsy lady! Given that it's midnight and I've only just got around to turning the PC on to deal with my email for the day, that was one inspiring read and sets me up nicely for a night playing catchup. Thank you.

Take care and see you soon

Dear Fay,

How can I thank you enough for making the party the great success which it was. Everyone loved the food & there was exactly the right amount as there was virtually nothing left by 4 am, except a couple of bits of wonderfully runny cheeses. I have always loved catering but for that kind of number I never get the quantities right & you did that, I guess it comes from experience. It was also beautifully presented which is the thing that first whets the taste buds. Although I don't eat seafood myself, the crab sandwiches just went 'whoosh'!

Usually at buffets I delay eating & then when I do it's all gone but fortunately my family insisted I eat something to soak up the alcohol so that I could make my speech without slurring my words which I did. I loved the Swedish meatballs and the 3 bean salad. Your approach to catering is one I fully endorse, the Escoffier maxim 'only the finest ingredients'.

I would like to take on the challenge of cooking a meal for you and your partner some time as I have a few tried & tested favourites which I'd like to try out on you and as my way of saying a treble thanks.

very best wishes

• I would like to thank Fay and Jane. Jane for allowing us to take over her garden yesterday for a league of scary birds gathering, I really had a good time even though we were having such a laugh I didnt really want to leave but hey we had a long drive ahead. So thanks Jane for the hospitality and it was great to meet you at last. Fay Olinksy thank you for the wonderful food. Thanks to everyone who came it was really good to meet all of you and hopefully we can do this again, but next time I am staying over so I can stay longer. Thank you Peter Hunter for driving us all the way down to Birmingham there and back and for allowing me to socially kidnap Gerri Smyth on the way back to Scotland.
It was great to put names to faces and I hope you realise I have an enormous amount of respect for all of you.

• Ask Fay Olinsky, she's a fabulous chef

• Have a look at Carol Slesser, Fay Olinsky and Dawn Charles.
I haven't met them in person but I'm reliably informed that they are inspirational!

• At The Midsummer Party that launched A Woman's Place, some friends and I were successful in bidding for a dinner party that was generously donated by Fay Olinsky in aid of Breakthrough Breast Cancer. Fay is the host of the World of Food here in A Woman's Place and has catered for a few of our events in the past - cooking beyond wildest dreams!
It's my friend's 40th birthday, so tonight four women will be gathered to drink champagne (we also bid for a magnum of Tattinger at the party), and sample Fay's delicious wares.
Off now to pack my posh frock and do my nails. Will report back on the menu - can't wait!

Dawn
A Woman's Place - the forum for women in Ecademy

• Following my blog yesterday about the dinner party I was going to last night for my friends 40th birthday, I felt that the evening warranted an entire blog to sing the praises of A Woman's Place Personal Chef Extraordinaire, Fay Olinsky.
She drove from Buckinghamshire to Telford to cook for us (on a very windy and flood-ridden night!), and by the time I arrived (having also struggled through the gales, heavy rainstorms and the M6), the meal was being cooked - the smells coming from the kitchen were wonderful and Fay chatted to us whilst she made dinner - she makes it all look completely effortless.
The dinner party was an awesome success. Here is the menu:
Canapés - lots of lovely bits and pieces with smoked salmon, cream cheese, olive things.
The starter - warm calves liver and avocado salad.
The main course - lamb, asparagus and roast potatoes.
Pudding: Chocolate fondue with strawberries, pineapple and melon.
All divine, beautifully presented and served with a smile - the four of us thought we had died and gone to heaven. After the meal, the kitchen looked like the fairies had been! The very best bit was yet to come - Fay joined us for (one or two) drinks, and I had the pleasure and opportunity to get to know her better. She has an amazing story to tell about her life - a woman with a multitude of talents and experiences.
To anyone reading this that would like to organise a really special event, call Fay!
Fay - thank you so much for everything! And what I would very, very much welcome is seeing one or two of your recipes here in A Woman's Place - especially the chocolate sauce for the fondue - it was to die for! And how to cook for Christmas!

Finally, can I invite all of those in A Woman's Place to comment here about what you might like to see Fay contributing in her World of Food?

Warmest wishes

It is a privilege to be connected with such an inspiration. Fay is wonderful, she rolls up her sleeves and gets on with whatever needs doing, she is open, she is a lady.

WOW .... I recently asked Fay if she would point me in the right direction on her website for a small gathering I am having. Within a very short space of time Fay had not only taken the time to reply and advise freely, but sent me a whole meal plan including the recipe and fool proof instructions. What an asset to Ecademy to have such a talented, friendly and approachable member. I hope to be able to meet with Fay in the near future.

Thank you Fay for providing such delicious food at my corporate hospitality event. All of the guests were owners or senior directors of major hotel groups - a group well versed in catering! Since the event I have received many letters and emails from them with the highest praise for day and all comment on the high standard of food which you provided. (and you provided all this in not the easiest of conditions / locations!)
Without your help, and the help of Alex the butler, the day would not have been such a success. My sincerest thanks to you. I look forward with earnest to the next event when I can experience your great talent again.

Thank you.

Fay,

I really enjoyed lunch on Tuesday, at Andrew Wilcox's MindManger for Ecademists Day. Everything was just perfect - particularly good risotto, and great service. The other group at the Regus Centre who were having sandwiches for their meeting looked suitably envious.

Many thanks, Ian...

After eating your blogs for months, I finally get to eat your lunches on two consecutive days. They were one of the highlights of both days. When can I do it again?

Hi Fay

Having had the privilege of experiencing your cuisine twice in the past two days, I now know what people mean when they praise your culinary skills. However, I've not really had the chance to talk to you yet - so I look forward to an early one-to-one.

Thanks and best wishes

Fay is a woman of substance , a very genuine human being , inspiring, caring , effective and a very unique person in my network.
   Hari B 15-Jan-05

I believe it was Winston Churchill who once said (possibly quoting someone else): "Success is moving from failure to failure, with no loss of enthusiasm".
In a rich and varied life, Fay has had more than her fair share of challenging circumstances, but seems to have navigated them with an extraordinary commitment to learn the lessons and keep moving on. This is a rare thing and should be much prized, in a world where so many people have one minor setback and then give the whole thing up as a bad job. It's hard to imagine Fay ever seeing things that way.....

It's a pleasure and a privilege to have Fay in my network, and I very much look forward to working with her in the near future.

   Patrick Moore [ 13-Jan-05 ]

Fay was delight to spend time with recently and is so very highly experienced. I am proud to have Fay in my network and look forward to getting to know her better. She wears her heart on her sleeve and is a lot of fun.

I have just been privileged to spend a couple of day's in Fay's company and I've had the most amazing time. She is warm, funny and fascinating as well as having a razor sharp brain. I look forward to many more such encounters in the years to come.

If you haven't yet made Fay's acquaintance, you are in for a treat.

Having watched, listened and read Fay over the last 6 months, when I finally met here I was really surprised. I expected someone who was vocal and outspoken. I was wrong! She is a wonderful, warm caring individual who listens carefully and focuses on every word you say. I look forward to meeting her again, and I just know that she is one of those few women, that I just want to have as a close friend. Thank you!

Fay is one of the most wonderful, fascinating woman I have ever met. I learned about her amazing life in an Interview for the Every Woman's Story feature.
Her culinary skills are second to none and always always ALWAYS exceed expectation Here's what I had to say about her catering for one of our events: "Yes I Was! When I wasn't stuffing myself full of Fay's deeeelicious food (God, the sausage and mash was soo wonderful it was positively evil), and chocolate cakes and toffee pudding (Jeff, the only male who was there helping me to set up the wireless network, had a mini main and a main dessert, diving into the cakes and pudding like no tomorrow!)"
I have no hesitation in recommending Fay's services professionally or even as a friend, as she is truly a woman of substance.

Warmest wishes

Fay Olinsky
Is one of the most fantastic people I have actually met on Ecademy.
Always has a smile on her face, even when faced with difficult situations.
A great realist that speaks from her heart, and always with great enthusiasm.

Fay is a FANTASTIC chef and a professional in every sense. I doubt there is anything she couldnt do, if she wanted to!

Having had the pleasure of sampling Fay's wonderful fare at the Woman's Place event on 29 January 2004, I can say that she is the most fantastic cook! I sampled as many different dishes as I could before getting too stuffed, and it was all wonderful - beautiful to look at, and delicious.

Wonderful stuff, Fayy!

 

 

 

Just to let you know that Alex was excellent at the conference last week.  Very thorough and professional.  I would certainly use him again at one of our events. 
Please pass on my thanks to Alex.

Best.

Thanks for passing on the Impact Media job for me Fay. It all went well and hopefully there'll be some spin off business from it.
Best regards
