Planning Thai party catering in Abberton
Abberton has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. In bigger houses we can serve indoors in the kitchen or conservatory and cook outside, keeping cooking smells out of the house.
Three in four homes in Abberton (88%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Gardens here suit a garden party with a cooking station on the patio and food served straight from the wok.
Abberton has plenty of character, with 22% of its homes built before 1919. Historic buildings often limit what can be cooked indoors, so we cook outside under our gazebo and serve inside.
Party venues in and around Abberton
Parties in and around Abberton usually happen at village halls, garden marquees and Tudor and historic houses, and we adapt the set-up to the space.
Indoors we serve a hot buffet in chafing dishes; outdoors we cook live at a gazebo station, which is half the entertainment.
The drive from our kitchen is about 25 miles via the A12 and A120, roughly 55 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Colchester and Colchester Town stations link to London Liverpool Street and the Sunshine Coast line.
Your menu, your way
Our whole menu is available for Thai party catering in Abberton. A good start is Royal Massaman Curry, Mango Sticky Rice and Sukhumvit Pad Thai with Gai Satay and Thai prawn crackers, but every menu is built around your guests, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free dishes and clear allergen labels on everything.
