FOOD FOR THOUGHT Norfolk’s Bayfield Catering has won ‘Caterer of the Year East’ and ‘Caterer of the Year Overall Winner (UK)’ at the English Wedding Awards 2023. “Winning feels really strange, as it has taken a long time to get recognised,” says Emma Boubaker from Bayfield Catering. “There were so many people there, but when they called my name, it was amazing. We’re a small company, so it’s so nice to be recognised and appreciated as we work so hard.” Emma is the only chef at the company and is supported by girls from her village who have been working together for the last decade.
