Its always lovely to receive a testimonial from a happy client,

"We just wanted to thank you for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect. Even though we came in with a menu that was a little different, you and your team went above and beyond, exceeding our expectations in every way. The food was incredible, and our guests are still talking about how much they loved it.

Please extend our gratitude to the entire team for going the extra mile. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Kindest Regards,
Nix & Daltz"

Another successful Pietermaritzburg Chamber of Commerce Ladies Lunch was held at Maritzburg College, hosting 400 ladies. The event featured outstanding speakers, exquisite cuisine, impressive decor, and fine wine. Having catered for this event for numerous years, we opted for a novel approach. We commenced with a hearty Butternut Soup, followed by our signature 'Family Platter Service' for the main course. This comprised a selection of dishes, including Pad Thai, Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice, Moroccan Chick Pea curry with Garlic Naan, and French Salad with complementary curry accompaniments. This innovative approach proved highly successful and thoroughly enjoyed by all attendees. The meal concluded with Red Velvet, strawberries, and cream. CHC Catering was responsible for the setup, while Draping was provided by Shirley from Rams, and balloons were sponsored by Office National. This year's theme, 'Catch a Falling Star,' was beautifully executed.

It’s Woman’s Month and it commenced with great fanfare. A luncheon was held at Harrington House for doctors and senior medical personnel, by SAMA and sponsored by Medi Clinic and Eden Gardens Hospital Group. The meal began with Hearty Butternut Soup and Croutons, followed by flame-grilled Fillet with Mushroom Sauce for the main course, which received rave reviews for its delicious flavour and perfect cooking. The event concluded with Red Velvet with Strawberry and Cream. We extend our gratitude to Nelli Dlamini for entrusting CHC Catering with this event. CHC Catering provided the decor, furniture, and catering services.

So when we moved our whole Chc operation to Calderwood Hall in September we kinda underestimated the size of our kitchen ! To the rescue “Uncle Mike” and his team who knocked up an amazing new scullery and despatch area and enough space for oodles of shelving to store “stuff” !

We were privileged to cater at the wedding of Sarah and Lukas at the Farside Farm wedding venue where they hosted 110 guests.

Menu ...

Hot canapés after the service

Butternut and Pear Soup
Carvery mains: roasted Rump of Beef /Roast Lamb, Spit Roast Sticky Chicken .
Hot vegetables: rice, roast potatoes and yorkshire pudding

Dessert: Malva and Custard

Note the Traditional Scandinavian Wedding Cake !!

We believe that wherever possible we adjust to meet any special dietary requirements, In this instance the bride was extremely gluten intolerant so we only used Ina Paarman herbs and spices and cornflour for thickening agent . Where it was not possible to use a non gluten, a special non gluten alternative was made for the bride.

Had to chuckle yesterday working in Africa can never be boring ! So we were busy serving lunch at a venue in Shongweni and one of our waiters rushes into the kitchen looking very distressed ! The monkeys had attacked the tea table we had set up on th patio and made off with the teabags and sugar and whatever they could find to steal ! Nothing like retrieving teabag envelopes and sugar jars strewn all over the bush ! Only in Africa !🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣
