What does catering include?
The word comes from «to cater», meaning to provide food. In practice it covers anything from simple platters to full service with staff, crockery and set-up. What is included varies from one provider to the next, so it pays to say clearly what you need whenever you enquire.
Typical occasions are company dinners, team events, drinks receptions, birthdays, weddings, club parties or meetings where nobody wants to cook for everyone. What they have in common: lots of guests, one date, and food that has to be ready at the same time.
Catering, take-away or a table booking?
For a meal for yourself or a few friends, take-away is enough: call, collect, done. If you would rather eat together at the restaurant, book a table. Catering makes sense once the quantities grow and there is an occasion behind it – then we plan amounts and timing with you in advance.
Event catering at Han Kitchen
We cater for larger orders and for events if you would like us to. Use our events and catering enquiry: choose dishes from our menu, enter the quantity you need and tell us about your occasion. We then get back to you personally to agree the date, quantities and collection.
You choose from the dishes on our menu – Korean classics such as japchae and bibimbap as well as sushi rolls, maki and nigiri. There is no separate catering range with other dishes. Our food is cooked by a former chef of Globus Bellevue in Zurich.
What to think about when you enquire
The earlier you ask, the easier it is to plan. It helps to know the number of guests, the date and time, the type of occasion and whether any guests are vegetarian. Our menu carries a general allergen notice (gluten, dairy, eggs, soy, nuts, shellfish, sesame) – please mention any special requirements directly in your enquiry.
Sushi and raw fish need to stay cool and be eaten soon. If there is a long gap between collection and eating, warm or cooked dishes are often the better choice. We are happy to talk this through with you.
Example: a team drinks reception at the office
A small company in north Zurich is celebrating the end of a project with 25 staff. Using the catering enquiry, the organiser picks japchae, bibimbap, California rolls and salmon maki in the quantities needed and enters the date and time. Han Kitchen gets in touch, sorts out the details and the collection time – and in the afternoon the food is ready.
Japchae CHF 28.90 · Bibimbap CHF 32.90 · California Roll CHF 12.00
