Ci Yan Vegetarian Health Catering ✓ ACRA Verified

Ci Yan Vegetarian Health Catering prices on a per-pax basis, with the exact rate dependent on your menu selection, pax count, and event format. As a general Singapore market reference, standard vegetarian buffets run S$15–25 per pax with a minimum of around 30–50 pax, while premium spreads or live-station formats sit at S$25–40 per pax. Mini-buffet formats for smaller groups of 8–15 pax typically run S$18–30 per pax. Beyond the per-pax rate, confirm whether delivery and setup are included or carry a surcharge for non-central addresses, whether chafing dishes and warmers are provided, whether a buffet attendant is available on-site (typically S$80–150 per attendant), and whether GST and service charge apply. Request a written quotation itemising all costs before paying any deposit. See the full catering cost guide for Singapore →

As a vegetarian specialist, Ci Yan Vegetarian Health Catering is well suited to events requiring no-meat, no-pork, and plant-based menus. Confirm whether their offering covers lacto-ovo vegetarian (eggs and dairy permitted), vegan (no animal products at all), and Jain-style (no root vegetables) options, as these differ meaningfully for guests with specific requirements. Vegetarian catering is not automatically halal — confirm whether Ci Yan holds a MUIS halal certificate for their kitchen or specific menu items if Muslim guests require strict halal. Ask about cross-contamination protocols if you are serving a mixed dietary group, and whether a menu tasting is available before booking. Most caterers offer a tasting session for orders above a minimum value. For Hindu guests requiring no-beef, vegetarian menus naturally satisfy this — but confirm there are no egg-based dishes if strict vegetarian practice is expected.

Legitimate caterers operating from a food centre stall in Singapore hold an SFA Food Shop Licence — Ci Yan Vegetarian Health Catering operates from Old Airport Road Food Centre at #01-58, which is a licensed hawker environment regulated by SFA. Ask the provider to confirm their SFA licence details and hygiene grade — A is highest, then B, C, D. No regulatory licences are currently listed in Ci Yan's KakiList profile, so confirm these directly before booking. If any menu items are marketed as halal, request the MUIS certificate number and check its validity. Cooked food for events should be served within roughly two to three hours of preparation, with hot dishes held above 60°C and cold items below 5°C per SFA guidelines. Confirm delivery timing, setup arrival, and the policy for safe handling of any leftovers. Avoid caterers who cannot produce an SFA licence for events above 20 pax — confirm the SFA licence and hygiene grade, book a tasting before paying the deposit, and put the per-pax rate, minimum headcount, dietary mix, delivery window, and balance schedule in writing.
