On-Site Catering in Orlando – Fresh Food Cooked Live at Your Event
A Lake Nona couple wanted their wedding buffet to feel special – not like standard catering where everything sits in chafing dishes getting dry. So we set up on-site catering with a carving station for prime rib, a pasta station where our chef made dishes to order, and a fajita station sizzling right in front of guests. The aromas drew people in, the live cooking became entertainment, and the food was the freshest possible because it was made right there. Thats the difference with on-site catering in Orlando. We bring our kitchen to your venue and cook fresh for event catering, reception catering, anniversary party catering, holiday party catering, and any celebration where you want that just-prepared quality. BBQ catering stations, breakfast catering with omelet bars, appetizer catering with live action – it all happens at your location.
What Is On-Site Catering?
On-site catering in Orlando means we bring our kitchen to your venue and cook food fresh right there. Unlike drop-off catering where everything is pre-made, on-site features live cooking stations, carving stations, and chef-prepared dishes made in front of your guests.
Exclusive Affairs Catering has been providing on-site catering since 2022. As a full-service catering company, we bring the theater of live cooking combined with the freshest quality food. Custom menu catering and themed menu catering come alive when guests watch their meals being prepared.
