A Proper Dinner Party Starts Before Guests Arrive.

A well-hosted Brisbane dinner party should leave room for conversation, not a last-minute rush between the kitchen and dining table. Private Plating helps shape a menu and service rhythm that lets you welcome guests as a host rather than take on the work of the evening.

Private Plating brings the agreed ingredients, prepares and plates the food on site, and cleans the cooking and preparation areas used during the experience. The aim is for the host to stay present with guests while the food is handled with care.

Private Plating

A Clear Way to Plan the Occasion.

The best format depends on the guest count and the feeling you want to create. A shared feast brings the table together, while a plated three-course dinner gives the night more structure. Private degustation works when food is the centrepiece of the gathering.

Start with the date, location, guest count and the kind of occasion you are planning. From there, we can discuss availability, menu direction, dietary requirements, service style and any practical details before a quote or booking is confirmed.

Private Plating

Make the Meal Part of the Conversation.

We begin with the occasion, your preferred style of food and the guests at the table. The menu can be built for a birthday, friends’ dinner, client evening or a simple reason to gather—then refined around dietary requirements and the pace of the night.

Advertised prices are starting prices and a $1,000 minimum booking applies to Canapé Experiences, Shared Feasts, Three-Course Feasts and Private Degustations. Final scope, staffing, travel and menu requirements are confirmed for the specific event before the booking is secured.

Plan with confidence

What Is Confirmed Before You Book.

Every event is scoped around the actual occasion, so the final quote reflects the date, guests, venue and agreed food experience.

Included as agreed
The confirmed quote sets out the menu planning, ingredient sourcing, on-site preparation, food service and clean-down responsibilities for the areas used during the experience.
Format and courses
Available formats include canapé service, shared feasts, three-course private dining and a six-course private degustation. The final menu and service sequence are agreed before the booking is secured.
Minimum booking
A $1,000 minimum booking applies to Canapé Experiences, Shared Feasts, Three-Course Feasts and Private Degustations.
Staffing and service
Service requirements, any additional staff and the level of on-site support are scoped to the guest count, selected format and venue before final pricing is confirmed.
Travel and venue factors
Brisbane and the Gold Coast are the primary service areas. Travel, venue access, equipment, public-holiday or bespoke requirements may affect the final quote.
What to share with us
Your date, location or suburb, guest count, occasion, dietary requirements and any venue or kitchen-access considerations are the best starting point.
