one thing i failed to mention. They must be around north london.

Im a freelancer events coordinator and one of the best asian caterers around is Ragasaan, used to be known as Ragamamas, they do everything!! Location is not a problem..

Pakwant in Ilford...

sapna is probably the best, plus they are the only ones who do halal food.

Depends what you're looking for, we struggled to find a caterer as we are only having 90 guests (miniscule compared to usual asian weddings!) But we've gone for Bombay Bicycle Club, not your traditional spicy indian food, but well cooked, delicately spiced indian food, and they can offer the whole package at a very reasonable price (they've only recently branched out into catering). And even though the food isn't very spicy you can obviously specify any changes you want, the guy who looks after this side of things is lovely too, we met him last night for a tasting.

However, stay away from Laguna, we went to wedding catered by them, food was nice but service was not. Being a vegetarian I couldn't have 2 out of 5 of the dishes, so thought I could have slightly more of the veg options....not so! I was given one kofta and tiny amounts of the side dishes.

Also we went in to speak to them about our wedding catering (before we discovered BBC) and then a couple of weeks later went in just for a meal, and the service was dire, the beer tasted like urine (according to my Mr to be) and the wine tasted like it had been diluted down with water. To top things off they had the nerve to add a service charge for only 2 diners!!!

ive been to several functions where saffron dor has catered. there food is amazing and there service is spot on. they organise everything and are very inspiring to work with not like the other asian caterers. i beleave they have there own market and are excellant at what they do

I've been to alot of weddings catererd by Laguna and they seem to have done very well every time. Madhus are good too. Alot of hotel venues seem to have their own list of caterers and i'm sure reputed hotels only keep the good quality caterers so choosing a caterer that has alot of hotel venues may be a good way to choose.

Maharaja catering is good, and these lot deal with everything. Their food was brilliant and at a reasonable price according to my cousin.

We've had Madhurs twice at the Hilton NEC in the past few months and they've been ok for the cost.
Also had Maharaja catering recently at my mates party in Leicester and I was very impressed for a night before party, these guys really went to town with the presentation, service and food quality.
I got to say I was a little upset with the Hilton NEC (Mudhurs)at my cousin wedding a few weeks ago as for what he paid, the waiters were unattentive, bored and never came back with refills. Did not complain as I did not want to upset the bride/groom but it did pi** me off at the though of what the Hilton were charging and delivering.

RIBA's CATERING in Hainault...Near Ilford - They are brilliant.

shazaina foods in hayes are good

riba in essex r really expensive and food tastes rubbish. dont go there.

Punjab Caters in Walthamstow, decently priced & the food is wonderful

Riba's in Ilford, essex

Don't use as they will ruin your whole
event, I paid for full event
management - my event manager
disappeared the whole time the event
was going on. The food was cold,
the staff looked like they were 12
years old and had no manners. I
had no bar and had to send friends
out to buy my alcohol at 4pm on a
sunday afternoon!!!!! It was a
disaster!!!!!!!

They don't know the meaning of
"Event Management".

brown...dont waffle - Riba's dont even do alcohol u doughnut!

I've once come across maharaja catering from Leicester, There food was excellent. I was amazed in the quality food. They had a chocolate fountain which was amazing. There fruit display looked brilliant with a large swan display and surrounded with little tea light candles.
10 out of 10. I do recommend these guys if you're after quality. I have only seen them once so not sure if they are still around.

Recently we had the wonderful opportunity, to attend a wedding outside of London, at a very rural location. The food was catered for by Passage to India of Heston and was fronted by their top man, Tosh Jassy. The food was amazing, staff trained to be helpful, and service obviously under observation, the high level of professionalism was apparent from start to finish.This guy and his team just breezed through a crowd of 400, at ease whilst serving all the food courses.Most caterers, just serve the food in a hurry to get the service out of the way.Each table was personally, visited and greeted by the front man. Wow you just can't beat the personal touch!! Highly recommended.

Riba's catering the best caterers around their kebabs were really nice and chicken curry was outstanding and their gajer halwa was the best I've ever tasted!!!. they were not cheap but they were worth every penny especially their events team who bent over backwards to make sure my event went to plan.
Highly recommended!!

the best caterer hmmm defiantly saffron dor there are 1 of the only Asian caterers to have English heritage meaning there service and quality of the food is the best

there are loads on www.sortmyshaadi.co.uk they are listed by area so you'll find a list of them in north london
