Housewarming Catering in Toronto: Feeding People in a House With No Kitchen Set Up

Your kitchen is in boxes and forty people are coming. Cater it. Here is exactly what to order.

The housewarming is the one party where you are guaranteed not to have a working kitchen. Half your pans are in a box, you do not know where the serving spoons are, and forty people are coming to look at your new place.

Do not cook. At all.

This is not the event to prove anything. You have just moved house, which is one of the most exhausting things a person does. Cater the whole thing and spend the evening actually showing people around.

Order food that needs nothing from you

You want food that arrives ready, holds heat in its own trays, and needs no plating, no finishing and no oven. Biryani, curries and rice are exactly this. Delivered hot in chafing dishes, they are self-sufficient for hours.

Avoid anything that needs reheating. Your oven may not even be hooked up.

Get delivery with setup

Pay for it. This is the event where setup is worth every dollar, because you do not know where anything is. Let someone else arrive, lay it out, and leave it ready.

Disposables are fine

Nobody is judging your plates at a housewarming. Good disposable plates and cutlery mean you are not washing up at midnight in a kitchen you have not organised yet.

Keep the menu short and generous

One biryani, two curries, a vegetable dish, something fresh. It looks abundant, it feeds everyone, and it does not require you to think.
