Impress your guests with your own private caterer

There is an enormous amount of planning and organisation that goes into a private party. One of the most important aspects is the food. It is vital that you provide your guests with food, but this is an enormous task. It is for this reason that it is worth enlisting the services of a catering company.

Chef Bertrand Munier

Food is an essential ingredient for any private party. Providing your guests with food allows people to stay at the party for long periods, relax and enjoy themselves. Food can bring people together, so it is also an excellent tool for helping people to socialise and mingle.

Whether it is a birthday party, cocktail party or anniversary, you should always make food one of the top priorities. Usually, finger food in a buffet is the best type to serve. It allows people to eat as much or as little as they like and choose when they eat. It is also light and easy so people can socialise while they eat. A few great options for a private party include canapés, sandwiches, cheeses, brochette and quiche.

Preparing food for a large group can be stressful and time-consuming. With this in mind, it is worth using a professional catering company. The best private catering London companies can even provide you with a chef to cook the food at the venue. Taking assistance of a catering service ensures that everything is fresh, hot and delicious and certainly impresses your guests. Using a catering company also reduces a lot of stress for the host and frees up time to focus on other areas of the party.

Private parties are always fantastic events and a great way to celebrate. They can also be stressful to organise and especially when it comes to the food, so using a caterer is an excellent solution to this problem.

Hosting a dinner party can be very stressful as there is so much pressure to impress. Even experienced dinner party hosts will have anxiety in the run up to the big night, and often it is the food which causes the most concern. Cooking a range of dishes for a large group can be intimidating, but fortunately, there is a great hidden trick which can considerably reduce stress and dazzle your guests.

ideal party food by chef munier

This is to get your dinner party food delivered by a catering company. A caterer can provide everything that you will need for the evening. The list includes starters, main courses, desserts and even a cheese board. You will have an enormous range to choose from so you can cater to every taste and choose something which will leave a lasting impression on your guests. The food comes with storage and serving instructions – means you simply have to serve it up on the big night.

One of the key advantages of this trick is that it frees up a huge amount of time during the party. The host often spends a large part of the evening hidden in the kitchen, but by ordering the food online, it allows you to spend more time sitting at the table and enjoying the company of your guests. It also means that there is less to wash up too!

If you have a dinner party coming up and have concerns about the food, this is a great trick that will reduce stress and impress your guests.

The best hot canapes ! Gougères recipe from Burgundy

28th August 201815th February 2019Leave a comment

Screen Shot 2018-08-28 at 11.46.34

Whether you are going to a Michelin star restaurant or at a friend’s house in France, you will most likely be served gougères canapes to accompany your aperitif drinks (drinks served before a meal). Gougères are traditional cheese puffs made with either Emmenthal or Comté cheese. These little canapes luxuries are perfect with champagne or wine (they are often served during wine-tastings) – and so chic if you have them home-made. Originally from Burgundy, these puffs were invented in the 17th century in a patisserie called ‘Le ramequin de Bourgogne’. So next time you have guests, why don’t you dazzle them with these golden puffs.

Ingredients (makes about 40)

250 ml/ 1 cup water

100 g/ 3.5 ounce salted butter

150 g/ 1 1/4 cups plain flour

180 g/ 2 cups grated Emmenthal or Gruyère cheese

4 eggs

A dash of ground nutmeg

1 egg yolk for glazing

A dash of salt and pepper

Pre-heat the over 180°

In a saucepan, bring the water and butter to a boil. Add the flour, stirring very fast and take immediately off the 6880354b233b989968432d063bf6700d heat. By now the batter will be roughly in the form of a softball. Add the eggs, one by one and stir. It’s important to add the eggs slowly – don’t worry if it looks too thick, just continue to stir as it will eventually become a smooth batter. Finally add the cheese, salt & pepper and stir to a good dewy batter.

Prepare a baking tray lined with parchment paper. You have two choices for preparing the gougères: either put the dough in a pastry bag with a standard tip and pipe walnut-sized mounds or spoon and shape with the help of two teaspoons and evenly shaped ball (again like the size of a walnut). Glaze with the egg yolk for a golden baked finish. Sprinkle the puffs lightly with grated cheese.

Leave adequate space between each gougère and bake for 25 minutes approx or until puffy and golden. Serve immediately.

ps: You can prepare these in advance and either refrigerate or freeze them. Just take them out again before serving and heat in a high-heat oven for 5-7 minutes.

bon appétit

Tips For Organising An Unforgettable Private Party

21st March 201814th February 20191 Comment

There is a tremendous amount of planning and organisation that goes into a successful private party, which can make them very daunting to plan. Fortunately, there are a few simple tips and tricks to reduce stress whilst also ensuring that it is a fun and memorable night for everyone in attendance.

There is no greater way to celebrate than a private party. Whether it is a birthday, anniversary, graduation or any other reason to celebrate, a private party allows you to do so with all of your friends and family in an intimate setting. These parties often end up being one of the social highlights of the year, but they can also be extremely stressful to plan because there is so much that needs to be organised. Here are a few top tips for organising an unforgettable private party.

bertrand munier image

Establish a budget :

The very first thing to do is to set how much money you want to spend on the party. You should come up with a price and write this down and then do everything to stay on budget. You will need to factor in the cost of the venue, catering, drinks and entertainment.

Guest list :

It is also crucial that you assemble a guest list and send out invitations as soon as possible. People’s calendars get booked up quickly, so you will want to give them plenty of warning, plus it is also helpful to have a list of how many people will be attending as this can help you to decide on the venue, catering, etc.

House party :

If space permits, it is a fantastic idea to host the party at your home. This will save you an enormous sum and can be much more comfortable than at a private venue. If you have a house party, you must inform your neighbours and be prepared to do a lot of preparing beforehand and tidying after the event.

Catering :

It may be tempting to save some money by preparing the food yourself, but this can be an enormous and very stressful task. Instead, it is best to opt for private party catering from an established catering company. They can provide you with a talented professional chef that will be able to prepare delicious fresh food at the venue for your entire party.

Entertainment :

If your budget permits, it is worth hiring a band or DJ to play the event as this will keep your guests entertained. If you have musical friends, you could ask them to play as this will be more personal and it could cost less. If your budget does not permit this, then you could simply create a playlist and connect your MP3 player to the venue’s sound system.

As fun and enjoyable as private parties usually are, they can also be extremely stressful and arduous events to organise. The above tips will help any host to throw an unforgettable party that your guests are sure to love.
