Celebrating Culture: How CaterCo. Infuses Peranakan Flavours into Modern Events

Singapore’s rich cultural tapestry is incomplete without the vibrant, complex, and beloved cuisine of the Peranakans. At CaterCo., we honour tradition while embracing innovation—infusing the bold, nuanced flavours of Peranakan cuisine into modern menus that are perfect for today’s events. From intimate gatherings to corporate functions, CaterCo. brings the soul of Nonya cooking to life, with a touch of sophistication.

1. What Makes Peranakan Cuisine So Special?

Peranakan food is a flavorful marriage of Malay and Chinese influences, known for its use of herbs, spices, and meticulous cooking techniques. It’s bold, colorful, and deeply rooted in heritage—making it the perfect culinary statement for any Singaporean event.

At CaterCo., our chefs take inspiration from classics like:

  • Laksa (now reimagined as our Signature Kampung Dry Laksa)
  • Ayam Buah Keluak
  • Babi Pongteh (non-halal, not included)
  • Nonya kuehs and desserts

Each dish is adapted to meet Halal standards while preserving authentic taste and presentation.

2. Traditional Flavours, Modern Formats

Peranakan-inspired dishes don’t need to be confined to traditional banquets. We offer them across various formats:

This versatility means you can serve heritage flavours at weddings, product launches, and corporate appreciation dinners alike.

3. Thematic Setups for Cultural Elegance

Pair the menu with a Thematic Setup inspired by Peranakan decor—think batik prints, pastel tiffin carriers, and intricate floral motifs. CaterCo. ensures the food isn’t just authentic—it’s presented with cultural depth and visual flair.

4. Perfect for Heritage-Inspired Events

Peranakan menus are especially suited for:

  • Weddings with cultural themes
  • Festive community events
