How Much Food Should You Order?
Since each tray feeds about six to eight people, a simple rule is to plan one main tray for every six to eight guests, then add rolls and salads so everyone has variety. Here are a few sample orders to get you started:
- Team lunch for 10 to 12: one tray of garlic noodles with chicken, one tray of rice or vermicelli with pork, one tray of imperial rolls and one tray of veggie rolls.
- Party for 20 to 25: two trays of garlic noodles (one chicken, one seasoned veggies), one tray of rice or vermicelli with beef, one papaya salad with prawns, and three trays of rolls in different flavors.
- Vegetarian-friendly gathering: garlic noodles with seasoned veggies, cabbage salad with tofu, veggie rolls and veggie crispy rolls, plus one meat tray for everyone else.

Why Choose Perilla Catering
- Crowd-pleasing dishes. Our catering trays feature the same garlic noodles, fresh and imperial rolls and salads that our dine-in guests order every night.
- Something for every diet. Vegetarian options are available in every category, from veggie rolls to seasoned veggie garlic noodles and tofu cabbage salad.
- Easy to serve. Trays are simple to set out buffet style, and rolls can be eaten by hand.
- Fair, clear pricing. Each tray has a set price, so it is easy to stay on budget.
Tips for Serving Vietnamese Food at Your Event
- Set up buffet style. Place mains in the middle of the table and rolls and salads at each end so the line moves quickly.
- Label vegetarian trays. A simple card next to veggie rolls, tofu salad and seasoned veggie noodles helps guests choose with confidence.
- Serve fried rolls first. Imperial rolls and veggie crispy rolls are best while still warm and crisp.
- Mention peanuts. Some dishes are served with or topped with peanuts, so let guests with allergies know before they serve themselves.
- Mix textures. Pair rich garlic noodles with cool, crunchy salads and fresh rolls for a balanced menu.
Catering Planning Checklist
Before you place a catering order, it helps to have a few details ready. Answering these questions up front makes ordering faster and helps make sure there is enough food for everyone:
- Date and time: when should the food be ready, and will it be picked up or delivered?
- Headcount: how many guests are you expecting, and are they coming for a light bite or a full meal?
- Dietary needs: how many vegetarian guests, and does anyone have a peanut or other food allergy?
- Serving style: will guests serve themselves buffet style, and do you need plates, napkins or utensils on hand?
- Budget: with set prices per tray, it is easy to build a menu that fits your budget before you order.
Events We Cater
Perilla catering is a good fit for office lunches and all-hands meetings, client presentations, birthday and graduation parties, holiday gatherings, game nights, family celebrations and casual weddings or rehearsal dinners. Vietnamese food is light, colorful and full of fresh herbs, so it keeps people energized rather than sleepy after the meal, which makes it especially popular for working lunches.
