Gastronomia Traiteur Paris

You'll need to call (+33 1 46 05 02 62) or use their website contact form to discuss your event specifics—guest count, date, venue, and dietary needs. They work on a custom pricing model, so they'll want to understand your budget range and menu preferences before providing a formal quote. Have your event details organized before reaching out to speed up the consultation process.

As a custom catering service, they typically work with dietary requirements during menu planning. However, you should explicitly discuss allergies (nuts, gluten, shellfish, etc.) and dietary preferences (vegan, halal, kosher) upfront and ask how they handle cross-contamination protocols and ingredient verification for sensitive guests.

Peak event seasons in Paris (May-June and September-October) book up 2-3 months in advance. For specialty menus or large guest counts, aim for 6-8 weeks of lead time. For smaller, simpler events, 3-4 weeks may be sufficient—but confirm availability early to avoid disappointment.

Most Paris caterers can work at any licensed venue within the city, but some may have experience with specific spaces that streamlines logistics. Ask if they've catered at your venue before, as familiarity with kitchen access, plating areas, and service flow can improve execution on event day.

Clarify whether their quoted price includes on-site staff for setup, plating, and service—or if you need to hire independent servers. Also confirm setup timing, equipment they provide versus what you source, and whether they oversee cleanup or if that's your responsibility.

Ask for details on tastings (if offered), how many menu revisions are included, and the final confirmation deadline. Understanding whether changes 2 weeks before the event incur extra fees will help you plan your decision-making timeline appropriately.
