London · Event catering & food ordering

Catering that makes the occasion feel considered

Weddings, corporate events, private parties and memorial gatherings — with clear allergen information, serving staff and tableware whenever you need them.

Our kitchen

Cooked by a head chef, not assembled from a warehouse

Every menu at Alicedda is developed and signed off by our head chef, who leads recipe development, seasoning, portioning and food-safety standards across the kitchen.

Recipe-led cooking

Dishes are built from written, costed recipes with fixed ingredient quantities, so the jollof rice, stews, grills and sides taste the same for ten guests or three hundred.

West African event menus

Ghanaian, Nigerian and wider West African cooking is prepared as sharing buffets and plated service, so one table can serve a whole guest list without compromise.

Traceable and safe

Ingredients are received against supplier records and batch-tracked through the kitchen, and allergy instructions must be acknowledged by the chef before preparation starts.

Allergens & dietary

Clear information, taken seriously

The 14 UK-regulated allergens

Every dish lists its ingredients with allergens emphasised, alongside any cross-contact warnings. Where an ingredient can be removed, it is marked as removable — but removing an ingredient does not make a dish allergen-free.

Read our allergen policy

Halal, Kosher, vegetarian and vegan

Dietary availability is recorded against each dish. We only describe food as certified where we hold the certifying body, reference and expiry details, and any request we cannot fulfil is sent for manual review rather than silently accepted.

FAQs

Common questions

How far in advance should I book catering?

We recommend booking event catering as early as possible. Minimum notice periods vary by event size and are shown when you check availability.

Can I change my order after booking?

Yes. Orders can be edited online until exactly 72 hours before your order due date and time. After that, please contact customer care and we will do our best to help.

How do you handle allergies?

Every dish lists its ingredients and the UK-regulated allergens it contains. You can declare allergies at checkout and our kitchen team must acknowledge them before preparation begins. We cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.

Do you offer Halal or Kosher options?

Availability is shown on each dish. Where certification details are held, they are displayed on the product page.
