About Kay's Lebanese Catering
Kay's Lebanese Catering, trading as Kay's Catering, cooks traditional Lebanese dishes from family recipes for Sydney events. The menu runs from mezza, salads and dips to chicken and rice, chargrilled skewers, slow-cooked mains, and baked finger food such as sambousik, kibbeh and spinach or cheese triangles. Kay's caters for birthdays, weddings, engagements, corporate events, baby showers, hens parties, christenings, and Ramadan iftars and Eid gatherings. There are three fixed packages. Classic includes chicken and rice, kafta skewers, tabouli, fattoush, hummus, garlic dip, pickles and two finger foods. Signature brings in a mixed grill, baba ganoush, vine leaves and a third finger food. Feast adds mansaf, kibbi nayeh, four finger foods, and dessert cups with a fruit platter. Fresh Lebanese bread and disposable serveware come with all three, and the price per guest drops at 50, 75 and 100 guests. If no package fits, Kay's will put together a menu from the full range to suit your budget. You can also book a live BBQ station, where the grill and the staff come to your venue. Package prices cover food only, are quoted per person and include GST. Delivery, buffet setup and staff are charged separately, and the minimum order is 30 guests. Paying a 30 percent deposit locks in your date, with final numbers and the balance due a week before the event. Proper crockery, glassware and cutlery can be hired from $6 per person. You can enquire through the callback form, by phone or on WhatsApp, and most callbacks come the same day.
