Every year all registered food premises are inspected by local council environmental officers.

The purpose of this visit is to look at the general cleanliness and hygiene practices of our chefs and food handlers within the kitchen. As well as safe/hygienic storage and cooking methods to eliminate any chance of allergen cross-contamination and food poisoning.

Last month we were thrilled to pass our yearly inspection with flying colours.

Our environmental health officer called Gourmet Guru Catering the largest, most efficient home-based food business in the Manningham Council jurisdiction.

Did you know that along with delicious catering, we can also provide bar staff for your next event?

Our seasoned bartenders will ensure your guests stay refreshed throughout your upcoming event.

Please note that our bartenders hold RSA certificates and can only be requested when we provide catering for your event. They're trained to serve many different drinks but they don't mix more complex cocktails - a mixologist would be required for this.

We received a higher than normal number of orders today for next week - it seems all of our corporate customers are back online.

Unfortunately, with today's Microsoft worldwide outage, our accounting system is down.

For our clients who've ordered today and are waiting for their invoice, it'll be raised as soon as Xero is back up and running.

Consistency keeps our customers returning.

Three events - 2022/2023/2024

In September 2022, our returning customer Fiona arranged her first grazing table with us to celebrate her partner's milestone birthday.

About a year later in November 2023, we had the privilege of creating her second grazing table for the couple's baby shower. As we were setting up, the expectant parents stepped away to view a nearby home they were considering purchasing. On their return, they playfully remarked that the next grazing table would be for Fiona and her twin's birthday.

In March 2024, we returned to cater Fiona and her sister's birthday celebration in their new home.

We were thrilled to be a part of all three special celebrations.
