Empire Food

The caterer is punctual

Even though it is the economy package at $13.90, it is still considered above norm pricing as compared to other caterers like YSL and neo garden. The food was relatively good, but the service needed to be improved considering the price we paid for. The caterer was on time but was late for more than an hour in keeping back the food. Furthermore, the deliverer had no smiles and presented himself in such a way that it was a chore to deliver on weekends and he forgot to put a trash bag below the beverage dispenser. As a result, we had to clean up later and put a trash bag ourselves. To be fair, his female counterpart was far better in offering the service.

We ordered 1 kid menu and 2 economy buffets. Cream mushroom, ham sandwich, chicken pie, eclair, tartlets, agar agar (not too sweet) are delicious, except for spaghetti. Spaghetti and sauce are mixed together when delivered hence become soggy, almost untouched. The mini pizza turned out to be a bun instead, with few slices of hotdog on the top. The mango pudding is very small, about 5x5cm in diameter, compare to other caterers provided.

The fried stuff are typically not oily so its a plus point. However their vegetables are slightly overcooked. The sin chow bee hoon is pinkish and looks like mee suah, not appetizing. The Honey dew in Honey dew with sago, is hard.

The fried stuff like butter soft shell crab and pandan chicken are not oily, plus point. Braised pork is tasty but the bun that comes with it is dry. Pineapple fried rice is hard and the vegetables is slightly overcooked.
