Testimonials

Chef Sebastian’s workshop was a fantastic way to kick off the Magazine St Kitchen Plugged series. It had just the right balance of theoretical information and practical demonstration, with every single question answered for participants from all over the world. We had several of the participants request for another session with Chef Seb which we are looking forward to hosting soon.

We commissioned Lavasalt because of their experience and the way they were prepared to co-construct the event with us. Chef Sebastian was highly engaged and responsive to our needs as we planned together. His preparations were meticulous and considered. He communicated very well in the lead up to, and throughout the event, and was both creative and adaptive to our planning process. Sebastian’s management of the event, with the team itself, was outstanding. He was calm, authoritative and measured throughout. Despite the complexity of the team building exercises, the numbers involved and the time pressure, he exuded a quiet confidence that put everyone at their ease and particularly the hosting organisation. He and Lavasalt are to be highly commended. The feedback has been excellent. I would recommend Sebastian and the team in a heartbeat. Simply brilliant stuff.

We had the absolute privilege of having Chef Sabastian and the incredible team from Lava Salt host our Christmas Party and what a night it was!
The preparation and attention to detail by the Lava Salt team ensured everything ran smoothly, creating an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. It wasn’t just the best Christmas Party we’ve ever had, it also turned into an amazing team-building night for our group.

The food? Absolutely outstanding. Every dish was made with high-quality produce and delivered with finesse, a true culinary experience.

Thank you, Chef Sabastian and the entire Lava Salt team, for making our night so special. We had the best time!
