About Rice Pantry
Rice Pantry is a family-run modern Asian caterer based in Arncliffe, cooking for Sydney events since 2016. Its head chef, Mama Le, started the business with a 200-guest event in its first year, and the kitchen has since catered birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, weddings and corporate functions, including a 2024 event attended by King Charles III. The same family also runs Pantori Cafe and Bakery in Arncliffe. The menu is built for sharing. Expect rice paper rolls, steamed bao, Vietnamese fried chicken, banh mi, sugarcane prawn skewers, Peking duck pancakes, dumplings, milk bun sliders, papaya salad and fruit platters, served as boxed share platters, individual meal boxes, canapes or styled grazing tables. For private events and weddings the team will suggest a menu and quote once you send the date, guest numbers and budget, usually replying within one business day. Catering is delivered across Sydney Metro, including the CBD, North Sydney, Parramatta, the Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Macquarie Park and Chatswood, or you can collect from the Arncliffe kitchen. A delivery fee may apply depending on location, day, time and order size. A 20% deposit secures the date, changes can be made up to 7 days out, and vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and nut-free needs are handled through order notes. It suits hosts who want fresh, generous Asian food that looks good on the table.
