Birthdays, anniversaries and family celebrations are some of our favourite events. In these photos our chef is setting out trays of freshly fried spring rolls beside the hot buffet, just before guests come through.
About this party
A hot Thai buffet works well for parties at home, in a village hall or in a function room: everyone eats together, there is something for every age, and the host does not have to cook. We set up, cook on site, serve and clear away, so the host can enjoy their own party.
What we served
- hand-rolled vegetable spring rolls, fried fresh on site
- chicken satay with peanut sauce
- Royal Massaman Curry, mild enough for children and older guests
- Sukhumvit Pad Thai with a vegan tofu version
- mango sticky rice for dessert
We keep a mild option for anyone nervous about spice and serve chilli on the side.
How the party worked
We arrive before guests to set up our kitchen, cook everything fresh and keep it hot in food stations. We serve on eco-friendly bamboo plates with cutlery, so there is no washing up, and anything left at the end can be boxed up for the host to keep.

Party catering starts at £14 per guest for mains with jasmine rice, £17 with spring rolls and £24 for food stations with starters, satay, two mains and two staff, with a £750 minimum spend. For a smaller, seated evening at home, our private chef dinner party brings a chef to cook a multi-course menu in your kitchen for 6 to 12 guests.
