Korean Buffet Spread Catering

Korean cuisine features a broad range of interesting flavors. Over centuries, Koreans have mastered the art of preserving their food. The result is a bevy of fermented and pickled items across many of their dishes. This gives their meals a unique blend of spicy, sweet and savory sensations to even the most seasoned palates. Fermented soybean paste or dochuejang as well as sesame oil and chili pepper paste known as gochujang are frequently used in Korean entrees. Most entrees will feature vegetables, proteins and a base of either rice or japchae (sweet potato noodles). Korean buffet-style catering is a great way to introduce your team to new and exciting flavors! Bulgogi beef and Korean spiced chicken are sure to have your team members talking and who knows, maybe they’ll find a new favorite!

Best Practices and Tips when Ordering Korean Buffet Spread Catering

Best Practices and Tips when Ordering Korean Buffet Spread Catering

If you're looking to put together a healthy, customizable meal, a buffet-style package is a great option. It may take a little longer than ordering pre-made bowls, but your team members will be able to control the ingredients and make sure everything meets your dietary needs. Keep in mind that some ingredients, like kimchi, may not be vegetarian because they contain fish sauce. And many ingredients are not gluten-free if they are made with soy sauce, since soy sauce is wheat-based. (Unless the restaurant uses gluten-free soy sauce.) Also, a lot of ingredients may be fermented or pickled, so they could be high in sodium.

This is because some guests may take more food than they mean to without realizing it. To be on the safe side, it is also advisable to order extra buffet-style sides. Since everyone has different appetites, it can be difficult to predict how much food each person will consume.
