Jaina Mohan Caterers

Engagement

Engagement and roka catering

Ring ceremonies and roka. Smaller than a wedding, and judged more closely for it — with eighty guests, everyone notices everything.

100% vegetarian kitchen. No onion, no garlic and Jain preparations on request.

Plan your menu

What's included

Planning a engagement

Passed, not stationed

At this size the snacks come to the guest. It keeps the room moving and nobody stands in a line.

One counter as theatre

A nitro chaat cone or a live ghewar. At eighty guests, one well-chosen counter is worth four ordinary ones.

Two families, one menu

This is often the first time both sides eat together. The menu is doing diplomatic work.

Bone china and brass

The service ware matters more at this scale than it does at six hundred.

Planning estimates for a standard buffet, and deliberately a little generous — running out is the one thing that cannot be fixed on the night. We confirm exact quantities on the call.

Questions

What people ask

How many dishes for eighty guests?
Fewer than you think — four or five snacks and six mains. At this size variety is less valuable than everything being excellent.
Should we do a live counter?
One, and make it the interesting one. Four counters at eighty guests just splits a small crowd.
Can you serve plated rather than buffet?
Yes. At this size plated is often the better call.
Do you cater roka ceremonies?
Yes, and they are frequently our first booking with a family.
How much notice?
Two weeks is comfortable.
Is everything vegetarian?
Yes, with no onion or garlic and Jain on request.
