Tips for Making It Work at Your Event
-
Choose the right format: For a casual work-get-together or relaxed family event, the delivery/drop-off options might suffice. For a more formal evening or larger guest list, opt for the buffet with staff.
-
Consider dietary needs early: The menu provides clear labels. Make sure to allocate enough items that cater for vegans, vegetarians and gluten-free guests.
-
Balance your menu: Mix heavier items (sausage rolls, lamb cutlets) with lighter/fresher sides (green bean salad, tomato/skewer) so guests don’t feel too weighed-down.
-
Time your order: Christmas periods get busy. Lock in your order early to secure your date and preferred options.
-
Think about service flow: If it’s a buffet, consider how guests will move, where drinks will be, where the food will be laid out — so the event flows smoothly.
