A Journey Through
Flavor & Passion
As a contestant on BBC Masterchef 2022, Vanessa Haughton showcased her culinary creativity on a national stage, but her journey with food extends far beyond the competition kitchen.
Since childhood, food has always been Vanessa's way of showing love. It meant catching up with friends and family, having a good laugh, and making sure you cooked extra in case that unannounced visitor showed up... they always did! And always left with containers.
Vanessa founded Set the Table, her private dining venture dedicated to giving you the highest level of service with stunning food and beautiful presentations. Through Set the Table, intimate supper clubs, and bespoke private chef services, Vanessa brings restaurant-quality Caribbean cuisine with influences from all over the world directly to you.
From custom cakes to event catering and weekly meal delivery, Vanessa creates fresh homemade dishes perfect for any occasion. Her approach combines classical techniques with bold, creative flavor combinations, drawing inspiration from Caribbean traditions and global culinary excellence.
