We started as a two person operation mostly catering for our friends and families. These events were mainly birthday parties, engagement parties, christenings and other smaller occasions. It wasn’t long before we began to take on bigger jobs, and hired more staff. After several months, we were catering for events such as weddings, funerals and even formal corporate functions. Today, we’re an experienced team of 12 people, including gourmet chefs, professional waiting staff, and even a mixologist.
One of the biggest challenges is calculating the right amount of food and drink for an event. Food waste can be a problem in the catering industry so it’s crucial that caterers prepare properly to ensure everyone is fed while also minimising waste. This is normally easier to do for sit-down meals with structured courses, but can be a little trickier with party style food such as with buffets and canapés. However, with experience and the right preparation, you can achieve both full bellies and virtually empty bins. Especially if the food is delicious like ours always is!
For us, most of the hard work is done before the day of the event. From ordering only the best quality produce to ensuring all equipment is spotlessly clean, we put the hours in early. As the old adage goes, ‘if you fail to prepare, prepare to fail’. This includes ensuring that any guests with special dietary requirements are prepared for, all staff members are aware of the time schedule, and all food that can be prepared before the event is ready to go. Once that’s all taken care of, we can focus on providing delicious food and a professional service with a smile throughout the duration of the event.

Matt made an amazing meal for our group last night. All of the food was delicious, beautifully presented and the evening flowed really well. We had canapés followed by a sit down dinner, the stands out were the salmon, prawn toast, duck, pork belly entree and beef short rib. He was very patient with the younger kids in our group and has a lovely manner. The kitchen was left sparkling clean. We would highly recommend Matt and his team.

We had Matt from Catered by Matt cook lunch for a hens celebration, and he was absolutely amazing! From the moment he arrived, he went above and beyond – helping us cut lemons and limes for our drinks, carrying heavy items for us without hesitation, and just generally being so helpful and friendly. The food he prepared was absolutely delicious and perfect for the occasion. He left the place spotless, even taking the rubbish out at the end. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Matt for any event – he made the day so easy and enjoyable!
