Food catering Melbourne

There is a widely held view that of all the cities of Australia, Melbourne is the catering capital. The Victorian city is well known for its fine pastry shops, its coffee houses and the general quality of cuisine served across this most cosmopolitan of centres. From Mornington to Ivanhoe, there are the outlets which sell those wonderful Vietnamese snacks, the quality beef and the freshest fish straight from the sea. For the outdoor barbeque in the hottest months of the year, the spit roast Melbourne residents (in Ringwood, Doncaster & Cranbourne) enjoy is second to none. That is something which has proved more popular over the years, as home based parties have become more common.

As part of the general business of providing good food there are the companies who provide tasty items for the birthday party catering (in Kew, Blackburn & Rowville), weddings, corporate events and the sports meetings. The races at Caulfield and at Flemington are just two locations in Melbourne’s active sports calendar which now includes the Australian Open Tennis, the Formula 1 motor racing and any number of top quality cricket matches at the MCG. So the catering company such as Uptown has the task of providing the catering finger food these events demand throughout the year.

Corporate Events

Those big sporting events we have mentioned, which are really the very top of the sporting tree, are those which are in high demand from the corporate world. This is one of the biggest growth areas in the leisure business such that a company will provide tickets and corporate hospitality for clients at the Melbourne Gold Cup day at Flemington, or a grandstand seat to see the hero of Australian motor racing, Mark Webber, speed around the Melbourne city course in his Red Bull Formula One car. This is the kind of event where Uptown can provide the catering corporate Melbourne demands at these international sporting and entertainment events.

The months of November through to February are indeed the busiest in the sporting calendar so there is much to do for the companies who are involved in corporate hospitality. But whilst that is one aspect of the catering business it is not forgotten that there are also plenty of wedding and ceremonies happening in the summer months. To provide fingerfood Christmas catering (in Doncaster, Wantirna & Box Hill) the likes of Uptown will go to great lengths to make sure all their clients are satisfied with a great selection of home made sausage rolls to fish goujons.

Party Catering Melbourne (Cranbourne, Ferntree Gully & Croydon)

Apart from being a culinary centre of the country, Melbourne is something of a party town. Entertainment is high up on the list of what visitors say about the city which attracts the very best performers and artists to its theatres. That party culture is right through the population with the students of the Melbourne University out to enjoy all that Melbourne has to offer – and that is a lot! But whilst the students are out at the clubs there is also a strong culture of home entertainment, which to some extent has been brought on by the Victoria driving regulations. Families are more likely to have a few friends around for the BBQ and get an outfit to provide the home catering Melbourne residents prefer.

For that kind of home based party, the host can choose from a selection of items on the list from Uptown. That list includes the sausage rolls we mentioned as well as rice paper rolls, dim sum, satay and curry puffs. Vegetarians are not forgotten with a selection of samosas, spring rolls and asparagus rolls. So the finger foods catering (in Croydon, Ringwood & Pakenham) provided by Uptown certainly covers all bases for all types of guest, be they meat lovers or strictly vegetarian.

Spit Roast Catering Melbourne Eastern Suburbs (Kew, Blackburn & Box Hill)

The city is well spread out, and whist the central area around the Yarra River is very popular with the visitors, there are some very smart places in the suburbs. Further east from the centre of Flinders Street and the famous Southern Cross rail station there are the suburbs heading out towards Boroondara which has a great history dating back to 1837 when the first Europeans settled there. However the Victoria state capital is well spread out and the wedding catering Melbourne visitors and guests will be looking for can come from a number of sources. Upmarket has developed a good reputation for providing a cost effective solution to the world of catering for events. Parties and ceremonies so they are inevitably a company to get a call when there is an event planned.

The wedding catering is just one sector of an ever growing market, and the ethos at Uptown is that quality wins through every day. If there is a budget to work to then the corporate hosts will be pleased to see the finger food catering Melbourne events demand is as little as $19 a head. For the parents of the bride who are looking to lay on a super spread for their daughters big day will be just as delighted to find an equally competitive price for the wedding catering.
