About Kitchen Witchery Catering
Kitchen Witchery Catering has cooked for Canberra functions for more than 25 years, working out of a kitchen in Fyshwick. The Ginger Group, a Canberra catering business based at the National Arboretum, took it over and kept its key people on. Apart from the bread, every dish is made by the team itself, with produce bought from local suppliers. Menus cover most kinds of function. Cocktail parties are built from canapé selections, each ordered for at least 20 guests, buffets suit groups of 20 or more, and seated lunches or dinners of one, two or three courses start at 10 guests. For daytime work events there are conference, lunch and morning or afternoon tea packages, and the kitchen can even cater on a boat. Food can simply be dropped off on platters, with hot dishes kept warm in insulated boxes on the way, or the team can send mature, experienced wait staff and a chef to set up, serve and clear away. Formal dinners and some buffets and cocktail menus need a chef on site. Where a venue has no kitchen, Kitchen Witchery can bring its own ovens and induction hot plates. Drinks are part of the offer as well. The business holds a general liquor licence and can run a drinks package or charge only for what is poured, always with a qualified service attendant. Most dietary needs can be met, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free, though kosher meals are not available. Advice on hiring tables, linen and glassware is also on hand.
