Whether you’re planning a ruracio in Rongai, a corporate lunch in Westlands, or a holiday dinner in Syokimau, one thing’s clear—you want a chef or caterer who delivers flavor, professionalism, and peace of mind.
Here are five things to check before you book a chef or event caterer in Kenya:
✅ 1. Are They Verified and Reviewed?
Food photos can be deceiving. What you need is real feedback from real clients.
What to look for:
- ✅Verified badge on the Balozy App
- ✅Ratings and reviews from past events
- ✅Sample menus and event photos
- ✅Clear service descriptions (buffet, plated, vegan, halal, etc.)
💡 On Balozy, every chef and caterer is background-checked and reviewed—so you book with confidence.
🍳 2. Do They Offer Menu Customization?
A good chef doesn’t just cook—they curate. Your event deserves a menu that fits your theme, budget, and dietary needs.
Ask before booking:
- ✅Can you customize the menu for my event?
- ✅Do you offer vegan, gluten-free, or halal options?
- ✅Can you do plated service, buffet, or live cooking stations?
📍 3. Are They Local to Your Venue?
Booking someone from your estate or cluster means faster setup, easier coordination, and fewer delays.
Balozy Tip: Use the “Near Me” filter to find chefs and caterers in Nairobi, Machakos, Eldoret, Kisumu, or wherever you are.
💬 4. Do They Communicate Clearly?
You want someone who confirms your booking, shares a menu draft, and arrives on time—not someone who ghosts or improvises.
Look for:
- ✅Fast response time on the app
- ✅Transparent pricing and package options
- ✅Respectful, professional tone
🧼 5. Do They Handle Setup and Cleanup?
Great food is just part of the experience. A verified caterer should also handle serving staff, cutlery, table setups, and post-event cleanup.
Ask:
- ✅Do you provide serving staff and tableware?
- ✅Will you clean up after the event?
- ✅Can you coordinate with my decorator or planner?
