About Shiok Kitchen Catering
Shiok Kitchen Catering is an event catering provider operating islandwide from its Henderson Road kitchen. KakiList has verified their operating details and contact channel. They hold a 4.5/5 rating across 143 Google reviews — a robust sample that provides a reliable read on service quality. Pricing is positioned in the mid-range ($$) on a per-pax model, which aligns with standard Singapore buffet and mini-buffet catering norms.
When planning an event, start by confirming your estimated headcount and event format — standard buffet, mini-buffet, bento delivery, or live station — as minimum pax thresholds and per-pax rates vary across these. Share your dietary mix early: halal, vegetarian, no-pork-no-lard, and no-beef requirements all affect menu design and kitchen sourcing. Ask whether a menu tasting is available before you commit to a deposit, and confirm what equipment is provided on the day — chafing dishes, warmers, serving tongs, and whether a buffet attendant is included or billed separately. Clarify the delivery and setup window relative to your event start time, the food-safety hold protocol for hot dishes, and the teardown arrangement.
To get started, reach out to Shiok Kitchen Catering via phone or the enquiry form with your event date, venue, headcount, and dietary requirements to receive a per-pax quote and check availability.

We ordered the shiok signature Asian menu. The food set up for my church wedding on the actual day was smooth with no problems, and guests commented that the food was nice, especially the laksa live station that we ordered! Communication with Jesslyn was also smooth. They were willing to accept our requests and answered our many queries!

Ordered 300+ packets of Christmas Bentos from SK Catering and Kiat Xin took care of all our enquiries and concerns. Since it was our first time working with them and we had a huge party, we were worried that the food would not reach us in time. However, on that day, not only did the food reached earlier than scheduled, the portion was generous too! Though there were slight spillage on the container due to transport, the food was still warm when we served it to our clients. Everything on the Christmas menu was really ideal for a Christmas celebration. It was reasonably priced within our budget. They were delicious and flavourful, the cheese sticks were alittle gummy due to the temperature drop (as per any cheeses), but it was still yummy. My favourite was definitely the herb rice and gravy from the chicken! Thank you Shiok Kitchen Catering for being part of both staff and our clients’ Christmas!

We engaged Shiok Kitchen Catering for our son’s 100-day celebration and couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, Zhi Rong and the team were absolutely on point — attentive, efficient, and incredibly accommodating to every request we had. Their professionalism made the entire process smooth and stress-free and I was done with settling my catering order so quickly! Ordered laksa, and it was a huge hit with our guests! Actually.. every dish on the menu was delicious — guests were asking who the caterer was and kept complimenting the food. The food quality and portioning were also excellent! (I was initially worried that I might have under-ordered, cause I ordered for lesser pax but Zhi Rong’s advice was spot on and everything turned out perfect.) A big thank you to Zhi Rong and team for going the extra mile to make our celebration such a memorable one. We’ll definitely be engaging Shiok Kitchen Catering again for future events! 👍🏼

I have worked with Shiok Kitchen Catering numerous times for our work events, and decided to also engage them for my housewarming which took place over 2 days. I liaised closely with Kiat Xin to determine a customised menu for both days, as well as the setup requirements and overall colour scheme, right down to the foliage I wanted for the setup. I shared pics of other setups to help them visualise what I wanted, and Shiok ended up delivering on everything, right down to the smallest details. Everyone that came sang praises of the setup, and loved the food. The Ops teams for both days comprising of Lynn Tun and Yeh for Day 1 and Jimmy and Derrick for Day 2 were awesome - they took pride in what they were doing, and were very accommodating of the adjustments we had to make onsite given some space constraints. All in all, no regrets with going with Shiok Kitchen Catering, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is planning for their own housewarming event!

Had a church wedding reception and the food from Shiok Kitchen was good! Everyone was happy which made us happy too! Jesslyn was very helpful and kind. She ensured that all requests made were carried out accordingly. She recommended the pan fried carrot cake with chye poh and eggs and it was good! The pulut hitam cake, sheperd’s pie and eefu noodles were delicious too! The Ops Team - Mr Mark and Mr Jimmy were sooooo kind and helpful! Their set up was so pretty and they ensured that our event went smoothly. The popiah live station was definitely worth it!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Shiok Kitchen Catering charge per pax?›
Shiok Kitchen Catering uses a per-pax pricing model positioned in the mid-range ($$).

Contact Shiok Kitchen Catering directly for their current menu and pricing sheet. See the full catering cost guide for Singapore →
What dietary options and halal certification does Shiok Kitchen Catering offer?›
Before booking, confirm whether Shiok Kitchen Catering holds a MUIS halal certificate — the certificate should display a licence number and validity dates. 'Halal-friendly' or 'no pork no lard' without MUIS certification is not equivalent to certified halal and will not meet the standard for guests who observe strict halal. Also confirm vegetarian options (lacto-ovo vs vegan), no-beef dishes for Hindu guests, and any gluten-free or nut-free requirements. For mixed dietary events, ask about cross-contamination protocols in the kitchen and on the buffet line. Most caterers offer a menu tasting for orders above a minimum value — request this before signing any contract, as it is the most reliable way to verify portion size, flavour, and presentation against the menu description.
Is Shiok Kitchen Catering licensed and how is food safety handled?›
Legitimate caterers in Singapore hold an SFA Food Shop or Catering Licence with a hygiene grade — A is highest, then B, C, and D. No regulatory licences are currently listed in Shiok Kitchen Catering's KakiList profile, so ask the company directly for their SFA licence number and hygiene grade before committing to a booking. For food safety on the day, hot dishes should be served within a 2–3 hour cooked-to-served window, maintained above 60°C in hot-hold equipment per SFA guidelines. Confirm the setup arrival time, whether warmers are staffed or self-service, and the policy for safe handling of any leftovers after the event. Confirm the SFA Food Shop or Catering Licence (and MUIS halal certificate where required), book a tasting before paying the deposit, and put the per-pax rate, minimum headcount, dietary mix, delivery and setup window, and balance schedule in writing.
