Forty people without a buffet line
At 40 pax the entry-level rate is $13 per pax with free delivery, so the order comes to $520. The food arrives in insulated warmer bags rather than on chafing stands, which matters at this size: there is no table to skirt, no equipment to wait for, and nobody has to stay behind at the end.
For a floor lunch, a community event or a large family gathering, that is usually the practical difference between a straightforward afternoon and a logistical one.

How the food is laid out
A 40 pax mini buffet is delivered as multiple insulated bags, each holding full trays of one or two dishes. You set them out wherever you like — a pantry counter, two tables, a void deck — which is easier at this size than a single fixed buffet line.
Serving gear comes with every tray, and the plates, bowls, cutlery, table cloth and trash bag are in the same delivery.

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.
Delivery $30
For mini buffet and bento orders, islandwide, and free on promotional menus above $225.
Drop and go, nothing to return
Food arrives in insulated warmer bags that keep it hot, and the bags are yours to keep. Every set comes with serving gear, cutlery, plates, bowls, a disposable table cloth and a trash bag, so you can bag everything up and bin it the moment you are done.
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 catering for 40 pax?
A mini buffet for 40 is $13 per pax on the entry-level menu with delivery included, so $520. The $20, $25, $30 and $45 menus are available at the same headcount.
Is 40 pax too many for a mini buffet?
No. The mini buffet rate runs to 74 pax and the food is delivered in as many insulated bags as the order needs. The format is the same at 40 as at 15, just more trays.
How long does the food stay warm?
The insulated bags hold serving temperature through delivery and for a reasonable window afterwards. Tell us the time you want to start serving and we schedule the drop-off around it rather than around our route.
Can I change the dishes?
Yes. The entry-level menus carry 43 free replacement options, so you can change any dish for another at no extra cost, and paid upgrades are available if you want something more premium. Swap whatever you like before you confirm.
Can I get a halal mini buffet for 40 pax?
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.
