Hell Yes!
Adding a datapoint. A Mini Kabob feast for 25 was $850. You could probably do cheaper by selecting less options but we kinda went ham.
prices at mini-kabob has gone up quite a bit, but donāt think thatās stopping anyone from ordering, itās that good.
Can we actually do this? Maybe around May?
Definitely not a value play but itās not like Hamlets wouldāve been cheaper. Food went over great. guests took all my planned leftovers
Bastards!
III Mas is available for catering while heās moving.
Hello! Any new catering ideas for a group of about 12, casual backyard gathering? Iāve been struggling a bit bc with this group size, the cost per person can easily be the same as a nice dinner out. Thanks!!
I still like a lot of the recs in this thread.
III Mas.
The Kojin team is great!
They made our Fatherās Day lunch so fun!
First, Iād like to commend Tiffany for making all the arrangements and planning so easy. She gave me options and clear instructions on how to go about picking items from the menu. I grabbed a color scheme from their IG library and we were off to the races. She answered all of my questions and set up a list of to-dos to make sure we were ready for service.
Chef Ruben & Carlos arrived 40 minutes before service to set up. They took care of everything as soon as they knew where we wanted to have the party. The table was lovely.
Meals include garlic edamame, vegetables, chicken fried rice, shrimp appetizer, and your choice of entree. Our group of 12 was allowed 3 entree options. We chose chicken & NY steak, lobster & NY steak, and shrimp/scallops/salmon. There are lots of options available.
Chef was gregarious and engaging. There were jokes and Carlos was so helpful. They were both a delight to be with.
The food was really well cooked. Steaks were all prepared perfect as orderedā¦rare, medium rare, medium, medium well, well done. Chef could do it all! His scallops were perfect! The salmon and lobster were cooked just right.
This was a great meal and really just soā¦fun! The team took care of everything for us and just made it so easy. There was plenty of food and most had leftovers for later.
We would gladly have Kojin back for another party.
@JeetKuneBao Is Chef Peter Hung still around hustling? Would you have a way to contact him? Thinking of contracting him for an event.
Thanks!

That was on the banner in my first post about him. Not sure if it works. Itās 2am now lol.
Also on insta he is chef_peter_hung
If that fails you can ask the family behind Glee Donuts. I believe that is his brothers shop.
Looks like heās operating under the name banhxeolicious
I started this thread many moons ago! Since then I have used a number of the mentioned chefs! Wondering if there are any new/fun suggestions for a group of 18. Donāt want anything sit down. Evening party on the Westside. Thank you in advance!!
Might be too expensive, but Chainsaw catered my rehearsal dinner this year and was incredible. Our guests are still talking about it 4 months later and I think about it all the time. $250pp.
If you have the time, itād be lovely if you shared some of your experiences w/ the other chefs, since that kind of info can be really helpful to other posters.
