In the event where food will be served over a period of time, such as a buffet, we recommend Sublime Catering provide the serving staff to ensure a high level of presentation is maintained. This is especially important for groups where numbers exceed 50 guests. The minimum service time for a 2-3 course buffet is 2 hours. Please let us know if you prefer to do the dishes clean up yourselves.

Both fork food and plated meals require an on-site chef. Depending on the numbers, additional catering and wait staff may be required.

Canapés are best served with drinks and handed around to guests. Sublime Catering will assemble and heat this dainty finger food on-site to ensure it is served to a high level of presentation. On-site chef time is included in the menu price. If required, we can arrange our own wait staff for a minimum of 2 hours.
