What Makes a Good Caterer Great? Our Clients Tell All

Food matters. But when it comes to a truly unforgettable event, great catering goes beyond what’s on the plate. It’s about how the food is served, how the team supports you, and how smoothly everything flows from first bite to final toast.

At Lavish, we’ve had the privilege of working with thousands of clients across Singapore—from first-time party planners to experienced corporate coordinators. Their feedback helps us grow, and it also reveals something important: what separates a good caterer from a great one.

Here’s what our clients say makes Lavish their go-to catering partner—and why these details make all the difference.

1. Thoughtful Menus, Not Just Pre-Set Packages

Our clients love that we don’t push cookie-cutter solutions. Instead, we help you mix and match across:

Each menu is designed with your event size, space, guest profile, and dietary needs in mind. Whether you want a light, vegetarian-friendly lunch or a bold, flavour-packed reception, Lavish helps you serve food that feels intentional.

2. Service That Feels Like a Partnership

Great food is only half the job. Our clients consistently highlight:

  • Friendly, responsive planners

  • On-time setup and tear-down

  • Clear advice on flow, space, and styling

  • Flexibility for last-minute changes

When your caterer becomes a true partner, planning becomes easier—and your event becomes smoother.

3. Styling That Feels Curated, Not Cluttered

“Presentation matters just as much as flavour.”
Clients love how Lavish makes their events look camera-ready without going over the top. We provide:

  • Matching trays, garnish, and signage

  • Optional colour coordination for themes

  • Clean, minimal layouts that elevate any space

From formal buffets to playful dessert setups, we ensure your food becomes part of the visual experience—not just background.

4. Real Reliability (Even on Short Notice)

“Lavish is my go-to when I need something fast, beautiful, and reliable.”

That’s a direct quote. And we hear it often. Clients return because we:

  • Offer rapid turnarounds on bento and mini buffet orders

  • Handle complex logistics, even across multiple floors or venues

  • Maintain consistent quality and punctuality

For planners, reliability isn’t a luxury—it’s everything.

5. Food That Speaks for Itself

Ultimately, people remember the food. And Lavish dishes are crafted to impress:

  • Balanced in flavour and portion

  • Beautifully plated

  • Inclusive and halal-certified across the board

  • Regularly refreshed to follow seasons and trends

Clients repeatedly tell us: their guests ask where the food came from. That’s how we know we’re doing it right.
