Bringing Teams Together, One Meal at a Time

There’s no better way to boost office morale, unwind from a stressful morning, reward staff for their achievements, or simply take time to socialise with your colleagues than with a sumptuous in-office staff lunch spread!

We are big believers in teamwork and workplace bonding, and know how important food is to successfully bringing a large group of people together. We like to make sure our foods help foster an environment where social interaction is easy, enjoyable, and memorable; we also believe in following one strict rule – the more food the merrier. We can cater for a range of dietary requirements and preferences, and within a budget that suits you. Our staff lunch suggestions range from classic hot and cold finger foods to culturally themed feasts (think Korean BBQ Chicken, Sushi & Sashimi feasts, and our All Australian range), and individually designed gourmet Lunch Boxes.
