Restaurant experience meets a new catering service
No invented case studies.
Masalas Catering launched in 2026. Until real catering assignments are completed and approved for publication, we show openly what the new service is built on.
What you can expect
Classifying experience honestly.
We have hosted international groups such as European Explorer in our restaurant. That is restaurant hospitality experience—not an external catering reference. We label it accordingly.

International groups such as European Explorer were hosted in our restaurant. This demonstrates group coordination and hospitality, but it is not an external catering reference. We will publish genuine catering case studies only after delivery and approval — the first one is directly below.
First completed catering job
Private garden party, 20 guests, Berlin-Biesdorf.
August 2026. Enquired through the form on this website. Prepared lactose-free apart from the naan — at no extra charge, with no power supply on site.

What was typical about this job.
The enquiry arrived with one unknown
Date, venue and guest count were fixed; the menu was not. We confirmed the framework first and built the menu together afterwards — not the other way round.
Lactose was the real question
The host wanted to know which dishes contained milk. Rather than removing dishes, we converted the buffet: korma with coconut milk instead of cream, curries without butter or yoghurt, rice without ghee. Only the naan stayed as it was, at her explicit request. No surcharge, and barely a difference in taste.
No power, no problem
The party was in a rear-courtyard garden. Our chafing dishes run on fuel paste, so the question of outdoor sockets and extension leads never arose — nor did the wet-weather fallback indoors.
Two tables, not one
For six warm dishes plus rice we advise 2 m × 80 cm, plus a second small table for plates, bread and papadom. Details like that are better settled beforehand than on the evening.
The invoice, unchanged.
We show it because "price on request" helps nobody plan a budget. The VAT split is the one that is correct for catering: food and its ancillary services at 7%, the pure rental of the chafing dishes at 19%.

What we changed because of it.
Eleven emails. Nine of them belonged here.
The job took eleven emails, and nine of them answered questions that belong on this website. Menu, prices, the power question, table space, deadlines and collection are therefore now published here — so the next conversation starts at the menu instead of the logistics.
