Frequently asked questions
How much do catering staff and hire add?
Staffing and equipment hire can add 20-40% on top of the food, especially for plated service and events without a venue kitchen. Servers, chefs, bar staff, crockery, glassware and linen all cost. Get these itemised so you can compare like with like.
What's included in a catering quote?
Look for: per-head food price, service style, staff (chefs, servers) and hours, equipment hire (crockery, glassware, linen, chafing dishes), setup and clear-down, travel, and any bar or drinks package. A per-head number alone hides staffing and hire costs that can rival the food.
Is a service charge or gratuity expected?
Many caterers add a service charge (often 15-22%) covering staff; confirm whether it's included or extra, and whether it goes to the team. Where a service charge is applied, an additional tip is usually optional. Clarify this before signing to avoid a surprise on the final invoice.
Buffet or plated — which should I choose?
Buffet is cheaper, more flexible on dietary needs, and needs fewer servers; plated service is more formal, controls portions and timing, and suits sit-down weddings and galas. Plated costs more in both food precision and staff. Match it to the event's formality and budget.
How do I find a good caterer near me in Whampoa Garden?
In Whampoa Garden, get quotes from three caterers with a written per-head and staffing breakdown, check food-hygiene registration and reviews, and do a tasting for bigger events. Compare on total cost per guest including staff and hire, not the headline food price.
How is catering priced in Hong Kong?
Cocktail and buffet catering runs roughly HK$200-800 per head; Chinese banquets HK$2,500-9,000 per table of 12. A 100-guest wedding banquet commonly totals HK$40,000-160,000 depending on venue and menu tier.
