Frequently asked catering questions
Q: I'm interested in your catering services, what's the first step?
A: You have several options: you can call us at (518)-268-2525, send us an email at info@spiceisland518.com, or complete the event questionnaire on the "Contact" tab on our website. We'll gather details about your event and then we'll design a custom menu based on your unique preferences.
Q: How do tastings work?
A: We reserve several weekdays and Sundays for private tastings depending upon your schedule. Because our kitchen shops for and prepares your custom menu, there is a charge associated with the tasting based on your proposed menu cost. We think it's important you taste everything on the menu, so you can go into your event confident the food is amazing and what you envisioned. We require at least one-week advanced notice to schedule a tasting.
Q: Can you provide staff for my event?
A: We have an amazing Spice Island staff that is food-handler certified. They are familiar and comfortable with every type of food service from buffet to multicourse meals and everything in between.
Q: Do you offer bar tending services and do you have a bar tending license?
A: Yes! We have talented staff bartenders who are ATAP certified and can make a mean drink! Our in-house beverage manager is our sommelier and mixologist and loves to create signature cocktails for any type of event.
Q: When is my final head count due?
A: We like to know your final guest count two weeks prior to your event date. This gives our kitchen ample time to prepare for your event. At that point, we'll revise your contract and update your final balance.
Q: Can you assist with furniture set up and breakdown?
A: Absolutely! We just need to be aware of the expectations prior to your event to ensure we are staffed appropriately to handle the set up within the allotted time block. We can also assist with table and chair movement during your event if staffed appropriately.
Q: What is Spice Island doing to be eco-friendly?
A: We use only 100% biodegradable disposables. These disposables are made from corn or other natural products. We also use organic and local foods, sourced from local farms, whenever possible.
