Questions about Catering?

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?

Hello,


I am looking to place a large order of Chicken Fantastic and Sambusa for about 20 people. The order would be for April 24th around 10:30am pick up time from the Minneapolis store.


Please let me know if this is something you can accommodate along with the price.


Thank you!

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.


We’d like to order the “Finger Food Sampler” for 22 people (Sambusa; a few of each, beef, chicken, veggie)


Thank you, thank you!

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,

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.

Your order form will not allow me to enter a time for the event drop off. I have tried entering several possible times into the MINUTES blank and it keeps giving me an error message.

I just sent in a large catering order. I think ? I said it was for the 13th but that’s WRONG. Its for this SAturday the 12th.

Hello,


I just put in an order for sambusa, shrimp, chicken wings and falafels but the screen went out before I finished. I had already put in my payment so I want to make sure that it actually went through. Also, I will need it delivered to Macalester College on Monday, May 7th at 4:30pm. Please give me a call at 612-232-6529.

My sister is considering planning a catering an event with you. I have Celiac disease. Do you have any gluten free options and do you have separate preparation areas to avoid cross-contamination? Do the following have gluten:

Chicken Fantastic, Afro Steak Dinner, Afro Salad or the Veggie Fantastic?

Thank you.

Hi, I’m one of the office assistants with the University of Minnesota Marching Band, and we’re planning for our band camp in August. The specific date has not been set yet, but we plan to cater lunch between August 24-August 28, 2018 on the U of M campus.


We anticipate 325 students and 15 staff for a total of 340. Would you be able to cater to a group our size?


For the box lunch option, are they prepared individually so students can grab & go, or would everything come in bulk and need to be served buffet style?
