Little Piggy Catering

Family style service merges buffet and plated to create a social, while sophisticated service,. Guests remain seated and large ‘family’ style platters are delivered to the table and shared among guests—usually about 8 guests per platter.  Depending on the complexity of your event you can expect to require one server for approximately 15-20 guests. Family service is not available in all venues and maximum guest numbers apply - usually around 50 people in private homes and 80 people in public venues with full commercial kitchen facilities.
