Wine advice KOM Catering Paco Bleeker oenologist The Hague

On request

Wine & food

A fine dinner deserves the right glass. Owner Paco Bleeker, a trainee oenologist at the Wine Academy, will put together a wine arrangement on request that complements the menu.

From a crisp white wine with fish to a characterful red with the meat. An option that takes the dinner to the next level.

Request a wine arrangement

A walking dinner can be informal, but it can equally take on the feel of fine dining. The format suits corporate networking drinks receptions just as well as galas and private dining. By working with small courses on quality tableware, considered wine pairings, chefs who finish dishes on the spot and a team that announces each course as it is served, you create a gastronomic experience within a dynamic format. For 30 to 250 guests this format scales well. For larger groups we work out staffing, service points and flow routes in advance.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about walking and seated dinners

Short answers. Prefer to talk it through directly? Request a quote.

At a walking dinner, guests move freely around the venue while the team serves each course. Informal and dynamic, ideal for networking events. At a seated dinner, guests sit at the table and courses are served to them. More elegant and personal, suited to formal dinners and gala evenings.

The price depends on the number of courses, the number of guests and the level of service required. We always put together a tailored quote. Get in touch for an indication.

We cater dinners for between 20 and over 800 guests — from intimate boardroom dinners to large gala evenings and weddings.

Yes. Owner Paco Bleeker, a trainee oenologist at the Wine Academy, will put together a wine arrangement on request that complements the menu.

We are active in The Hague, Delft, Rotterdam, Leiden, Rijswijk, Zoetermeer and surrounding areas. Amsterdam and Utrecht are also possible, depending on guest numbers and planning.

Yes, and it can be a particularly strong format for exactly that purpose. At a walking dinner, guests are standing and moving, courses are served course by course by the team, and the pace keeps conversation flowing. By working with small courses on quality tableware, considered combinations and a well-dressed team, the format takes on the feel of fine dining — just more informal and dynamic than a seated dinner.

Yes. A walking dinner can be informal, but it can equally take on the feel of fine dining. Think small courses, polished presentation, well-matched wine pairings and service that moves with the programme. We use restaurant-grade techniques, polished presentation and service that matches the tone of the evening. The shift is in the format, not in the attention to quality.

By thinking in courses rather than in plates. A progression with variety in texture, temperature and intensity. A wine or pairing that follows the flavour build. Presentation that suits the tone of the evening. And a team that announces each course as it is served, so guests know what they are tasting. Nothing more complicated than that, but considered throughout.

For galas and anniversaries, a walking dinner is a good alternative to a classic seated dinner: it keeps the pace high and guests remain in motion. For corporate dinners where networking is important, the format usually works better than a fixed seating arrangement. For 30 to 250 guests, this format scales well. For larger groups we work out staffing, service points and flow routes in advance.
