Menus we've cooked · Al Barsha
Small parties in Al Barsha, with plenty of starters.
Birthdays and house parties in villa compounds, often for twenty-five guests or fewer.
Al Barsha parties tend to be small: three of the six we have cooked there were for twenty-five guests or fewer, in villas and compound houses. Small parties eat starters, so the menus lean on them.
The menu below, from 2026, had eight starters, a Burmese khao suey counter, two biryanis and a single dessert. It is a good shape for a party where people stand and talk.

On the day
What a party in Al Barsha needs.
Tell us the compound when you book. If it has a guard at the gate, we send ahead whatever the guard asks for.
Four of the five parties where we noted it were in the garden. With a smaller garden we set the counter close to the house and keep the buffet indoors, so guests can move between the two.

Common questions
Answers before you ask.
- Is twenty guests too small for catering in Al Barsha?
- No. Twenty guests is our minimum, and half our Al Barsha parties were around that size. A small party suits more starters and one live counter rather than a long buffet.
