The past 2 years had been terrible with the in-person restrictions and dining-in measures in place for the F&B industry. However, things should look up for the year 2022 as the vast majority of the populace have been inoculated against the covid-virus, and with the latest omicron variant posing no serious threats to vaccinated individuals based on recent reports. For 2022, we’d believe that most individuals will experience some significant events in their life journey as well. Planning for such significant events is nevertheless time-consuming when you strive to make them memorable! As in all kinds of planned events, there is one item that you can’t omit from your list, Food! And sadly, this is also one of the trickiest parts of your list. There are simply too many things to consider when choosing the perfect caterer for your event. Quality of food, presentation, food hygiene and safety, and of course cost! There are many mistakes that people made through the course of catering foo...

  Singapore catering industry has seen significant changes over the decades as along with demographics changes, consumers’ preference to higher disposable incomes per household. From where it used to be catering for events such as business seminars and luncheons, house-warming, baby showers to current demands for a bespoke wedding reception,  Tingkat , schools, senior living facilities and hospitals, and even to just a simple house gathering amongst close friends & relatives are some of the current occasions where organisations and individuals will give thoughts to engaging a caterer.

In fact, you can pamper yourself by getting caterers to solve the food pr...

  Finding the perfect caterer for your event is never an easy job. Different caterers specialize in different types of events. Ask the caterers if they have experience in serving at your kind of events. Verify by checking out their profiles, websites and social media handles. When it comes to selecting the perfect caterer, few things that are important to consider; Customer Service No matter which caterer you choose, their customer support has to be strong to handle your enquiries and requirements.

Is your caterer flexible enough to accommodate your simple request such as the level of spiciness of the foods? If the caterer is not willing to accommodate, then you have to seriously consider another caterer as you do not want to be tied down to the caterer inflexibility. Customer Reviews Finding a caterer that provides...

  Having to host and prepare food for a party is never easy. There are a lot of factors to take into consideration like dietary preferences, logistics, costs, time and even space. If you are looking to host a simple dinner for a group of 15, what can you possibly do? While there are a lot of special and unique solutions, we are going to shed some light on this topic. For a dinner setting with friends and families, you can always have a potluck dinner. A potluck dinner is where everyone brings in a dish or food from their own and contribute it to the dinner table. This is especially easy to do because the preparation time can be as short as an hour. Of course, you have to make sure that whatever you bring is enough for everyone present. Moreover, if you are personally cooking it, this is also time to show off your skills. Bonding over a potluck dinner can be very smooth as well, as there will be minimal movement from the kitchen to the table as the foods are all already there. As th...

  When it comes to a party, no one like a fixed routine or a schedule. “Be here at 7 for dinner!” That would be a total turn-off, isn’t it? But instead, “Food will be served 7 onwards”, gives you more room and leeway to turn up slightly later than 7 and still expect the food to be served. To do that,  buffet catering   would be the perfect solution to such a scenario. What so great is that buffet catering gives us the freedom of when to eat and what to eat. As long as the food is available, you don’t have to worry about it going anywhere. If your party is a casual one, buffet caterings can help lighten the mood. Not every party has to be formal and not every meal has to be formal as well. Having everyone seated at the same time, and getting the same food served is now becoming a chore. A party is where people retreat to get some time off and to relax. Buffet caterings can offer such respite to guests and hosts alike. Getting restless at the table entertaining people? Head...

Christmas is just round the corner. Most of the people are starting to make plans for the Christmas celebrations despite this covid19 situation. However, we still need to abide by the law on having small group gathering only. So how do we plan for this? Who are the attendees of this party? That’s probably the 1st question that came to our mind. After all, we are only limited to 5 pax in a group now.  Next question will be, where is the celebration going to be held? Many people are planning for a hotel staycation since we are not able to travel, so probably staying in the hotel for 1 or 2 nights might give u the feel of travelling to nearby countries. Alternatively, will be to dine out, and probably hang around somewhere after dinner. Lastly, which is a more popular choice is to gather at a friend or relative house for a closed-door party so that including the hosts themselves, we can cater for another 5 more pax of guests. After deciding a venue, food will come in place as mos...

  If you have been reading online, you would have seen some horrifying experience by your friends or family members about buffet catering and the sort of experience they have been getting with different caterers. Like any other service, bad service and experiences are bound to have. However, food is more than just service. It also concerns our safety as food safety is indeed a serious topic. Food poisoning can be lethal in some cases and hygiene is highly emphasised in Singapore. Here are some of the usual negative experience you might have seen or witness when it comes to buffet catering – Inadequate food While this is not really a serious problem, things could still go messy. They often say a hungry man is an angry man. While you may have indicated the number of pax when ordering, the amount of food still comes short.

But that is if you have the appropriate appetite for the buffet you are going to. Most of the time, many people don’t eat their money’s worth. The question here is, why not cater your own buffet instead of going to expensive buffets where you can almost never eat your money’s worth? Price-to-food ratio Yes, yes, yes… Buffet dining has unlimited food. So what? How much can you eat? Besides, it isn’t cheap at all. Most of the time, the cost comes from the bulk of that one or two ingredients used. And you are not there to eat only a dish or food.

Best of both worlds isn’t it?  Cheap buffet caterings  are plenty in Singapore anyway! Location Travelling all the way to town just to...
