How far in advance should we book?
Coffee breaks need 48 hours' notice; breakfasts and most menus 72 hours; the premium breakfast and the sharing menus 5 working days, and the premium celebration menu 7. Final guest numbers are confirmed at least 72 hours before the event — earlier for premium, plated and large functions. Short-notice office catering is often possible — ask us.
Is there a minimum number of guests?
Each package states its minimum: coffee breaks, canapé receptions, sharing and plated menus from 20 guests (the premium sharing menu from 30), breakfasts from 25 (the premium breakfast from 30) and buffets from 40. Lunch boxes are ordered by the box, from 10.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are marked on our menus, and alternatives can be prepared for other needs. Please share dietary requirements and declared allergens before the final menu deadline; alternatives are subject to kitchen controls, ingredient availability and equivalent cost.
Do you provide staff, equipment and tableware?
Yes — uniformed service staff, chafing dishes, buffet displays, crockery, glassware and linen can all be included, along with delivery, setup and breakdown.
Can we host our event at your restaurants?
Yes. Cello Restaurant, C Restaurant and Pergola Café — all at Sama Tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, opposite Dubai World Trade Centre — host corporate and private events. Choose “Host at our venues” in the event builder, or send us the date and guest count and we will check availability.
Where do you deliver?
Across Dubai and, for larger events, the wider UAE. Our production kitchen is at Dubai World Trade Centre.
Can we taste the menu first?
For set-menu dinners and larger events we are happy to arrange a tasting once the menu direction is agreed.
How do you price an event?
Every event is quoted individually — it depends on the format, the menu, the guest count and the service required. Send us the basics through the event builder or the contact form and we'll return a clear, itemised proposal; delivery, service staff, serviceware, equipment hire and venue-related costs are listed separately.
