Bespoke catering
No set menu.
No one-size-fits-all catering.
Every booking is different. Tell Ahmet what you would like to eat, how many people you're feeding, your date and location. He'll discuss the details with you and provide a personalised quote.
From a Turkish family table to a traditional carvery, the food is planned around your occasion rather than picked off a list.
Tell Ahmet what you needWhat Ahmet cooks
Three ways people book SELCEM
Most enquiries fall into one of these three, but the food is always planned around the occasion rather than a fixed list.
Turkish Cuisine
Traditional favourites, home-style dishes and generous tables prepared around what you and your guests enjoy. Tell Ahmet the kind of Turkish food you have in mind and he will plan it around your numbers.

Traditional Carvery
Roast meats, potatoes, vegetables, gravy and classic carvery favourites prepared for your occasion. Ahmet has carved and served at a working carvery counter, so the format is familiar territory.

Bespoke Catering
Have something different in mind? Tell Ahmet what you want and he will build the food around your event. There is no fixed list to choose from, so the conversation starts with your occasion.

The person cooking
Meet Chef Ahmet
SELCEM is a personal catering service led by Chef Ahmet. It brings together Turkish cooking, traditional carvery and flexible catering built around each customer's occasion.
Every booking starts with a conversation — what you want to eat, how many people you're feeding, and what kind of occasion you're planning. You speak to Ahmet directly, not a booking desk.

Real experience
Real food. Real experience. Personal service.
These are Ahmet's own working photographs — a professional kitchen, a carvery counter and a service setup. They are not polished studio shots, and that is rather the point.
