INFINITI Q50 DRIVE EXPERIENCE CAPE TOWN PROUDLY PRESENTED BY

BACKGROUND A catering company should deliver four things: delectable food, world-class service, inspired presentation and a stress-free event! To deliver these things it takes both talent and experience and The Culinary Entertainment Company (CEC) has plenty of both. Our experience dates back to 1993, when Roland Smidt established the renowned Town & Country Cuisine. From its inception, the company grew from strength to strength to become the most recognized and celebrated catering company in South Africa. In 2007 Town & Country was sold to the Compass Group SA. In 2010 Roland Smidt joined forces with former Executive Head Chef, Vincent Verrydt, to launch the much-anticipated Culinary Entertainment Company In 2014, The Culinary Co. has grown to not only include top quality turnkey catering solutions for up-market functions in both the corporate and private sector, but also boasts a canteen, a venue and a restaurant as part of their portfolio.

TEAM Core Team ROLAND SMIDT OWNER Roland Smidt has been in the Catering and Entertainment Management Business for more than 30 years. Establishing the very successful Town and Country Cuisine and running it for more than 15 years, the business was subsequently sold in 2008 as a profitable concern.
