Where a served buffet line becomes available
Our buffet-with-setup menus begin at 30 pax, on the $20 per pax level. That is $600 for the food plus the $90 setup fee, so $690 in total, with delivery included.
What the setup fee buys is the line itself: a skirted table, chafing warmers holding everything at temperature, serving gear, disposable plates, cutlery and napkins, our team assembling it before you start and coming back for the equipment afterwards.
From $20 per pax
Plus the $90 setup fee. $690 in total for thirty people.

Why 30 pax is $20 and 45 pax is $15
Two menu levels carry buffet setup. The $20 level accepts orders from 30 pax; the $15 level only opens at 45. So between 30 and 44 pax the $20 menu is the only one available, and from 45 pax the rate drops to $15.
In totals: thirty people cost $690 and forty-five cost $765. That is fifteen more people for $75.
How ordering works
Book early for popular dates
Our cutoff is one day before your event. In practice, order earlier: festive periods, year-end parties and weekend slots fill up well ahead, and booking early secures both your slot and the dishes you want.
Buffet delivery and setup $90
One fee covers delivery, a full setup with a skirted table and cloth, warmers, serving gear, disposable plates, cutlery and napkins, and our team returning to collect the equipment after your event.
Changes up to 24 hours before
Adjust your headcount, menu or timing more than 24 hours before your event, subject to availability. Within 24 hours the food and manpower are already committed, so changes and cancellations are normally not accepted and a fee of 50% to 100% of the order may apply.
Additional charges may apply for outlying areas (Tengah, Lim Chu Kang, Tuas, Sentosa, Changi Airport and Alps Avenue), deliveries before 10am or after 7.30pm, and venues without lift access. Every charge is confirmed in your quotation before you pay. See full terms.

Frequently asked questions
How much is buffet catering for 30 pax?
From $20 per pax plus the $90 setup fee, so $690 in total on the entry-available menu, with delivery included.
Can I have a buffet setup for fewer than 30 people?
No. 30 pax is the lowest headcount any of our buffet-with-setup menus accept. Our mini buffet menus start at 10 pax and are delivered in insulated warmer bags rather than set up on a line.
What does the $90 buffet setup include?
A skirted buffet table with a cloth, chafing warmers to hold the food at temperature, serving gear, disposable plates, cutlery and napkins, our team setting the line up before your event, and a return trip to collect the equipment afterwards. Delivery is included in it.
Can I change the dishes on a buffet menu?
Yes. The entry-level menus carry 43 free replacement options and the higher levels carry more, up to 89. Paid upgrades to premium dishes are available and are priced before you confirm.
Can the buffet be halal?
Yes. Halal menus come from Muslim-owned stalls, and halal-certified menus are available through our partnering vendors on request. Select halal in the menu planner and only halal menus are shown.
How far in advance should I order catering?
The latest we can take an order is one day before your event. We recommend booking earlier than that: popular dates such as Chinese New Year, Hari Raya, Christmas and the year-end party season are taken weeks ahead, and ordering early secures your slot and the dishes you want. For large events, the earlier the better.
Is there a delivery fee?
Delivery is $30 on mini buffet orders below our promotional threshold and free on promotional menus above $225, which in practice means free from 15 pax upwards. Our bento promotional menus include delivery at every tier. Buffet with setup is $90, which covers delivery, setting up the buffet line and collecting the equipment afterwards. Additional charges may apply for outlying areas, deliveries before 10am or after 7.30pm, and venues without lift access. Every charge is confirmed in your quotation.
What is included with the food?
Mini buffet orders are drop and go: the food arrives in insulated warmer bags that are yours to keep, with serving gear, cutlery, plates, bowls, a disposable table cloth and a trash bag, so you can bag everything up and bin it after your event. Bento meals come individually boxed with cutlery. Buffet with setup includes a skirted table and cloth, warmers, serving gear, disposable plates, cutlery and napkins, and our team returns to collect the equipment.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Yes, with more than 24 hours' notice before your event, subject to availability. Within 24 hours the food and manpower are already committed, so changes and cancellations are normally not accepted and a fee of 50% to 100% of the order may apply.
