CATERING
It’s layers of attention to detail, skill and care that elevate the good into extraordinary. We were privileged to provide catering services for so many wonderful clients.
We hope the below questions and answers will help you decide if we’re a good fit for your event. Please get in touch to receive a personalised offer.
VENUE: Villa Humac
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO PROVIDE A QUOTE?
We need the date and place of your event. In addition, we need a minimum and maximum expected guest count.
CAN YOU CATER TO ANY VENUE?
We are fully mobile and able to provide catering services at any venue on the island of Hvar, that has running water and solid electricity.
WHAT DETERMINES THE PRICE PER GUEST?
Price is determined by several factors. Menu ingredients, logistical complexity, time of year and number of guests.
WHICH RENTAL DOES YOUR PROPOSAL INCLUDE?
All equipment and manpower necessary to serve the agreed menu and beverages. We often recreate a fully operational kitchen and bar in the middle of nowhere.
HOW MANY GUESTS CAN YOU SERVE?
We are equipped to serve events of up to 120 guests, banquet style.
WHAT ARE YOUR SPECIALTIES?
Non-imported, authentic food, prepared on site and served fresh. We don’t offer hundreds of food choices, instead we adapt your preferences to the venue’s capability.
WHERE DOES THE FOOD COME FROM?
We source locally and are proud of our long lasting, professional relationship with same suppliers. Likewise, the food we serve on catering is of exactly the same origin and quality as the food served in the restaurant.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO ORGANISE FOOD TASTING?
Complimentary tasting for two is offered for all clients who contract our services.
DO YOU OFFER DESSERTS AND WEDDING CAKES?
While a variety of desserts is always included in our menus, a wedding cake is to be ordered separately and charged according to its size and style.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THE FOOD ONLY, AS WE’D LIKE TO SOURCE OUR OWN BEVERAGES?
We only provide full catering services, and both food and drinks must be purchased through us.
WOULD YOU TAKE ANOTHER CATERING ON THE SAME DAY?
We are a one team operation consisting of manual workers, kitchen staff and wait staff. We won’t book another catering on the same day and we won’t take more than two events a week.
VENUE: Dvori Sv.Jurja
VENUE: Villa de Pinus
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE YOUR STAFF TO SET UP?
Wherever possible, we deliver heavy equipment the day before. Because no food is cooked before the actual event, we start as early as necessary on the day, to prepare everything in time for guests’ arrival.
HOW WILL YOUR STAFF DRESS?
They are appropriately dressed according to the event theme and type of floor surface.
CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE CHILDREN AND VENDOR MEALS?
We are happy to offer discounted menus for children younger than 10 and staff working at event.
IS THERE A TIMEFRAME FOR CATERING SERVICES, OR WORKING HOURS?
We are flexible to an extent, with a few boundaries as a guideline.
If we’re to cater for an evening event (dinner), guests usually gather from 5pm, with breakdown latest at 1am. If we’re to cater for an afternoon event (lunch), guests usually gather from 11am, with breakdown latest at 7pm.
It is certainly possible to have a “dinner” that starts at 3pm with drinks and canapés, we need to know that in advance so that we can adapt the quantities and cost.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH LEFTOVERS?
Guests often continue partying long after we leave. For this reason, all leftovers (food and beverages included) are rearranged for guests’ disposal. We supply disposable cups so that you don’t have to worry about glasses for your drinks.
WHAT DO YOU DO IN CASE OF EXTREME WEATHER?
Outdoor events always carry a risk that comes with unfavourable climate conditions and we can’t control it, be it rain, heat or winds. We work closely with wedding planners and clients to adapt to the situation and make the best of it, never compromising the wellbeing of our staff and your guests.
WHAT DOES YOUR CREW CLEAN AFTER THE EVENT?
We thoroughly clean all spaces used for food preparation, as well as designated bar area. We are not responsible for cleaning of sanitary spaces or other areas (toilets, dance floor, swimming pool etc).
WE DECIDED THAT WE DON’T NEED A WEDDING PLANNER. WOULD YOU ASSIST WITH SERVICES OTHER THAN CATERING, ie. HELP US LOOK FOR VENUES AND VENDORS, ORGANISE DELIVERY OF ITEMS WE ORDERED PRIVATELY, ARRANGE OUR DECORATIONS AND UNDERTAKE SIMILAR SIDE JOBS?
We regret that we are not staffed to undertake responsibilities that are not part of our agreement, or services that we provide.
We cannot stress enough the importance of a reliable and capable destination wedding planner and would urge anyone to reconsider.
