Questions about Catering?

I would like to place a pick up order of 2 pans of Somali rice for Monday, December 23 around 4pm. Thank you, Artika

how much a pan of finer food platter sampler to serve 30 folks?

We will have a meeting in January in Minneapolis and would love to order catering from you. What is your minimum order? Do you have recommendation for a buffet for a typical business meeting (not too messy to eat, ha)? May we pay via credit card over the phone? Thank you!!

Hi,

I have an event on the afternoon of Wednesday, December 18th that I would like catered. It is a staff holiday get together. I am looking at the Finger Food Sampler. It would be for about 40 people, downtown Saint Paul at Minnesota Public Radio. Can you deliver to this location? Do you charge for delivery? We definitely need veggie options in addition to some meat options. What would the total cost for this be? I am open to food suggestions as well.


Thank you for any information you can provide.

I have an order that is requesting approval but I need to make some changes. I tried calling the store but I’m getting a busy signal. Our order should be for 60 Sambusas and 20 orders of fries with the total coming in at just under $140. However, the order says 10 orders of fries now. I also want to pick the order up at 2:15 instead of 2:00. I’m just worried about a panful of fries getting soggy before our event kicks off at 3:00. Can someone edit the order, the link is below, or call me to discuss? 612-625-7821.


Thank you, Julie Strothman

We need boxed lunches for 50 on Friday, November 1, delivered to the Minneapolis Emergency Operations Training Facility, 25 37th Ave NE, Minneapolis 55421. We have only 45 minutes for lunch. We would like the lunches at the facility by 11 AM. We would like to provide a variety of options. I would like someone to call me to go over what the potential options would be. I have to run them by the person organizing the lunch before making the decisions.

We need to have food catered on November 8, 2019 and we are asking our staff members to look on your MENU for St. Paul and let me know what they want to order. We would then prepare the full list of food, etc. that is requested and supply to you. Is this possible to order catering in this way? If this is possible, we will need to get an estimated quote from you (based on what we want to order) and then you can help us to understand the process more fully. The total would be more than $150. Thanks much and we look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

Hello, do you guys cater across country?

Hello Afro Deli,


If I was planning to place an order for 50 Veggie Sambusas how much notice will you need and what would the cost be? We plan on picking these up from the Washington Ave. location.


Thank you!

I am looking to cater some boxed lunches for a meeting on Tuesday, 9/10/19. We would not meet the price threshold for delivery services so I am wondering what my options are for getting the food to the meeting (League of MN Cities). Do you do pick up for catering orders? Are you a member of any outside delivery service we could use?


Thanks for your assistance.

The U of M is hosting an Education Workshop from 9am-3pm on May 23rd for about 120 people, and we’d like to provide our guests with lunch. We will want to have a few dairy-free, vegetarian and gluten free options. I see that you do have vegetarian options, but can you confirm if your entrees are gluten free and dairy free? Is this an order Afro Deli can help with?

We are quite interested in having you cater a lunch on May 20. We favor the Baobaob buffet. We are at Wirth Chalet. There will be 40-45 people. In addition to the per person food cost, what other costs are there? Do you provide beverages? What other services (linens, flatware, glasses, etc.) do you provide? Thank you.

Hello! Zero Waste Saint Paul is celebrating the “Sustainable To-Go Ordinance Update” vote and wanted to celebrate by supporting a local business that has nearly always had sustainable to-go containers, AND who testified in favor of the ordinance: Afro Deli!! We’ve been using the hashtag #sustainabilitymeansbusiness" (borrowed from the “bikesmeanbusiness” hashtag) and we mean it: we will happily support your and other establishments who have already pledged to use sustainable to-go containers.

Hi,


I’m looking to have a lunch catered for 15 people on March 6th. We have a mix of vegetarians, omnivores, and dairy free individuals. with the buffet style catering it looks like for the vegetarian option that only the Veggie Fantastic is available. Could we sub in the Veggie Stew instead for a dairy free option or is there a way to make the Veggie Fantastic dairy free?


Thanks!

Hi there!


I am the sponsorship manager for the Girl Talk Conference happening March 15th and 16th in Minneapolis!

We have a couple of different meals we are providing for our volunteers and for the attendees of this event and would love if Afro Deli would partner with us in providing food, and in return, we would be happy to promote and support the restaurant in a variety of way. It would be great to connect with someone from the team about this opportunity.


Thanks much,

Hello,

Thank you!

I’m reaching out as i’m trying to find a Somali caterer in the Sioux Falls region of SD, and I’ve not had much luck. I’m wondering through your community connections whether you are aware of any caterers in the South Dakota region that would be able to cater an event for over 400 folks, or if indeed this is something you’d be interested in doing.

Planning a Black history month/Mentoring event at the Carlson School involving US Bank mentors and 9th grade students from Edison High School. This is all through an organization called Best Prep. This will be mid February for 260 people around 11-12. I was just hoping you might be interested in offering a reduced price for some promotional benefit or to support the cause.

How much for a large tray of sambosa?

Hello,


My name is Linda and I am a part of the African Nations Student Association at the University of St. Thomas. We will be having Africa Night Saturday March 9th 2019 and we were hoping to have Afro Deli catering for about 350 people. Which would you recommend for a larger group the Baobaob option or the Village option. And are there any discounts for larger groups?


Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.


Linda.
