Client feedback

Feedback from the canteen

We have worked with the same team for six years. Canteen satisfaction is in the top three in employee surveys. Having the price-increase formula written in the contract increased trust.
NNilüfer AksoyHR Director, automotive supplier
The 2,500-guest gala service was completed in 52 minutes. The allergen cards and multilingual menu earned praise from international participants.
EEmre TaşkınMarketing Manager, summit organiser
That diet trays come with the patient label and temperature records are shared is very valuable for our infection committee.
DDr. Selma BozkurtDeputy Chief Physician
Even at −20 degrees four meals a day were served without a hitch. The container kitchen was ready in 10 days.
HHakan YurtSite Manager
Monthly menus sent to parents and the paediatric dietitian's signature put us at ease. The allergen cards made things safe.

FAQ

Questions before you sign

Have a question?

Our team is on the phone every weekday.

+90 262 555 84 00Write to us
What is the minimum number of people you serve?
The minimum is 100 people for canteen operation, 40 for cocktails, 20 boxes for lunch box and 100 for an open buffet. For smaller groups please contact us.
How are prices updated?
By the formula written in the contract, quarterly: the weighted average of the PPI food, minimum wage and fuel indices is used. The formula is stated clearly in every quote.
Where is the food prepared?
In our 6,400 m² central kitchen in Gebze; carried to the customer's canteen by hot chain (≥ 65 °C). Where the customer has a kitchen, on-site cooking is also possible.
How do you manage allergy and diet requests?
Every menu card states the 14 allergen groups; employees who request it receive a personal card. A separate preparation line is used for cases such as coeliac disease, lactose intolerance and peanut allergy.
How far ahead should an event be booked?
We suggest contacting us 7 days ahead for cocktails and small receptions, and 3–4 weeks ahead for events above 500. In the year-end season (November–December) dates may fill 8 weeks ahead.
Is the menu tasting charged?
No. Tastings in the Gebze kitchen are free for up to 6 people. For event menus any tasting fee is credited against the quote if you contract with us.
