Planning a Christmas dinner for a small group is struggle enough, but being tasked to plan a meal for larger groups means you’re in for more fuss than festivities this year-end. Don’t sweat it just yet, though, as Stamford Catering is here to help smooth things over with their extensive selection of festive menus, from corporate bento sets, bundles for house parties, to larger festive buffets that can feed over 100 people. Whatever your party needs, they’ve got you covered.
Stamford Catering’s line-up lets you pick from 18 different festive specials, each tailored to a different group size. Everything comes ready-to-eat—no need to warm things up in the oven, or slow roast from scratch.
If it’s an intimate gathering you’re organising the meal for, then we‘d suggest Asian-inspired Rudolph’s Red Dot Bundle, which feeds up to 10, from $278++.Â
The meal starts with Laksa Chicken Mid-Wings—think deep-fried wings coated in their house-made laksa paste.
These make for excellent finger food with a cold drink alongside!
The hero of this bundle is the Belly Shiok Curry Turkey, a localised take on roast turkey. The whole bird is marinated in their house-made curry paste, then slow-roasted to aromatic, juicy ends.
The skin is a delightful golden-brown, and slightly crispy too.
This is accompanied by a Gratin Beef Rendang. This Nyonya spin on a Shepherd’s Pie is, in our opinion, much tastier than the OG ang moh version.
You get a rich, lemak rendang stew with chunks of tender beef, topped with mashed potatoes that are broiled so you get crispy bits in every spoonful.Â
The set also includes a Butter Chicken Lasagna, which marries Northern Indian and Italian flavours.Â
Expect layers of curried bechamel, butter chicken, and pasta sheets, adorned with a final layer of cheese that’s gone golden brown in the oven.
No Christmas feast is complete without dessert. Stamford Catering swaps out the usual log cake for a family-sized Orh Nee Bread And Butter Pudding, a Teochew interpretation of the English classic.
Here, brioche pillows are cooked in a sweet, earthy orh nee—the result is a super comforting end to all that feasting.
If you’re planning for a dinner with 10 times the people, turn to Stamford Catering’s Festive Buffets. The Merry Buffet ($22++ per person) feeds a minimum of 30 people, though you can size up your order to feed over 100, easily.
The buffet comes with eight courses, all of them crowd-pleasers. To start, you’ve got a Maple Glazed Turkey Ham Platter with orange cranberry compote, and a Festive Salad studded with feta, walnuts, and a zesty lemon vinaigrette.
Following that, there are four different main dishes, from Baked Spiced Seabass Fillet with Lemon Beurre Blanc, to Chicken Ala King, a creamy chicken and mushroom stew with green beans. For carbs, pick between a Barley Risotto with Field Mushrooms and Truffle, or a spicy Spaghetti Aglio Olio E Peperoncino. Dessert comes in the form of a Traditional English Carrot Cake.Â
