I’m hosting a party for 15 people and want the warm, authentic taste of Ethiopia at the centre of the evening. I’m looking for a chef who can create a balanced spread of both meat-based and vegetarian favourites—think tender doro wat alongside flavour-packed shiro or atkilt—that we can pass around family-style. There are no specific dietary restrictions to worry about, so you have the freedom to focus on flavour and tradition rather than substitutions. What I need from you: • A proposed menu that blends classic meat dishes with vibrant vegetarian options, paired with plenty of fresh injera. • Ingredient sourcing and advance prep (I can reimburse or provide a shopping budget once we finalise the menu). • On-site cooking or drop-off with clear reheating/serving instructions—whichever you recommend for best flavour and presentation. • Family-style platters arranged so guests can help themselves easily. Timing: the event is scheduled for early evening two weekends from now, so we’ll confirm the final menu and logistics at least a week in advance. If you have experience catering Ethiopian cuisine and can bring the aromatic berbere and perfectly fermented injera that make these dishes shine, I’d love to hear your ideas and see photos of past work.

Hello, I’d love to help bring an authentic Ethiopian dining experience to your party. For 15 guests, I can create a balanced family-style menu featuring classics like Doro Wat, Tibs, Shiro, Misir Wat, and Atkilt, served with freshly prepared injera. The goal will be a vibrant spread where guests can share and enjoy traditional flavours together. I can handle ingredient sourcing, preparation, and cooking, and we can choose either on-site service for the best presentation or prepared dishes with clear reheating instructions if that’s more convenient. I’ll also arrange the platters in a traditional style so everyone can easily serve themselves. Once we confirm the menu, I’ll prepare a detailed ingredient list and timeline to ensure everything is ready for your event. I’d be happy to share ideas and photos from similar meals I’ve prepared. Looking forward to making your evening memorable!
