Planning an event in Zürich and looking for catering that feels personal, refined and professionally organised? Chef Karim Schumann provides bespoke event catering for corporate functions, private celebrations, business dinners and special occasions across Zürich and the surrounding region.
Every event is different, which is why the menu and service are developed around your occasion rather than selected from a standard package. From an intimate private dinner to a larger corporate gathering, we work with you to create a catering experience that suits your guests, venue, schedule and preferred dining style.
Our events and catering services are designed for occasions ranging from relaxed private gatherings to formal business functions. The menu, presentation and service format can be adapted according to the atmosphere and requirements of your event.
Professional occasions require catering that fits naturally into the schedule while providing a polished experience for guests.
Menus can be planned around your event schedule, whether you need a concise lunch, a standing reception or a more formal evening dinner.
Suitable Occasions:
Celebrate important occasions with a menu created around you and your guests.
We provide catering for events such as birthdays, anniversaries, engagement celebrations, family gatherings and private receptions. Depending on the occasion, we can create canapés, sharing menus, buffets or a more formal multi-course dining experience.
Celebration Formats:
For intimate occasions where food is central to the experience, Chef Karim Schumann can create a private fine dining menu at your home or chosen venue.
A multi-course menu can be developed around seasonal ingredients, your preferences and the style of your occasion, bringing a carefully considered dining experience to your event location.
Gastronomic Standards:
Not every event requires a formal seated dinner. For receptions, networking occasions and relaxed celebrations, canapé, buffet and sharing-style formats can provide a more flexible way for guests to enjoy the food while socialising.
Where appropriate, BBQ and buffet-style options can also be considered for informal group gatherings.
Social Dining Styles:
Our approach to event catering services begins with understanding your event before developing the menu. Depending on your requirements, the service can include:
The exact combination depends on your event, venue, guest numbers and preferred format.
A business lunch, private anniversary dinner and large reception each require a different approach. Rather than relying on a fixed menu, we develop the culinary concept around the occasion.
For a corporate event, the priority may be a well-structured menu that works around meetings, presentations or networking. For a private celebration, there may be more opportunity for a longer dining experience and personal menu choices.
Planning catering events involves more than choosing dishes. Timing, preparation, presentation and service all need to work together. Our process keeps the planning straightforward.
Start by providing your event date, location, approximate guest numbers and the type of occasion you are planning.
We discuss the atmosphere you want to create, preferred dining style, menu expectations, dietary requirements and any practical considerations relating to the venue.
A menu concept is created specifically around your event and refined according to your preferences.
Once the menu and service approach are agreed, the practical details such as timings, preparation and on-site requirements can be confirmed.
On the day, the focus is on delivering the agreed menu and service so you can spend your time with your guests.
Corporate catering needs to work around the event rather than interrupt it.
Whether you are organising a business lunch, executive dinner, client gathering or networking reception, the menu and service can be planned according to the timing and format of your occasion.
For professional events, presentation and organisation are particularly important. Our approach is to create food and service that complement the purpose of the event while giving your guests a well-considered dining experience.
Private occasions allow for a more personal approach to food and hospitality.
Whether you are hosting a birthday, anniversary, engagement celebration or family gathering, we can develop a menu around your preferences, guest requirements and the atmosphere you want to create.
From a relaxed gathering with sharing dishes to an intimate multi-course dinner, the format can be adapted to suit the occasion.
