Sydney Event Catering by Three-Hat Chef Grant King
Your Event. Your Menu. Cooked by One of Australia's Most Awarded Chefs.
What if the food at your next event was designed from scratch by a chef who earned three chef hats, took a restaurant to No.1 in Australia, and was named Chef of the Year? That is what happens when you work with Smile Catering.
Grant King personally designs every menu around you, your guests, and the best seasonal produce available. He sources the ingredients from fishermen and farmers he has worked with for decades. And he cooks it himself, at your location, with a team trained to his standards.
From elegant degustations to relaxed garden feasts, waterfront weddings to corporate boardrooms, intimate dinners to large-scale celebrations. Whatever the occasion, whatever the style, the food will be extraordinary.
