Our name says it all – we’re here to add that special Zing to your event. Our team of chefs is focused on crafting dishes that excite and energize our guests.

Catering of Health Food

When should you call upon Zing Food to organize your catering? The name ‘Zing’ explains that we make our food to excite and energize our guests. Our kitchen in Amsterdam constantly fights against too heavy food, especially for lunches. We try to avoid the ‘lunch-dip’ we all know, caused by a bloated feeling after lunches with excessive use of carbs and other difficult to digest ingredients.

Our regular clients appreciate us for our service and for bringing friendly and professional wait staff to their events. Depending on the atmosphere and nature of your event, we’ll ensure that we stay discreetly in the background or that we are present in a cheerful way.

Fresh and seasonal ingredients

Obviously, we are working with fresh ingredients for all our productions and that means that we do not work with ‘ready-made’ products. Almost all of our goods are purchased from the Amsterdam wholesaler De Kweeker which is known for its wide range of organic and local products.

Our kitchen in Amsterdam

Presently our base is at 180, Warmondstraat in Amsterdam South near the Hoofddorpplein. A lovely location spaced for production, workshops, and meetings. In this kitchen nowadays we prepare canapés, and appetizers and we have ample preparation space and cooling storage to prepare for large dinner parties. Due to the nearby ring road also the RAI exhibition center, the WTC, the centric ‘Grachtengordel’, and Amstelveen are easy destinations.

Of course, we do cater in the surrounding vicinity of Amsterdam, and depending on the size of the order we cover the whole country if requested.

Menus with Local Amsterdam Products

When you are proud of your city, you want to reflect that to your guests. We do that!

Amsterdam is famous for its rich history, not only in beautiful architecture but also for products made by traditional methods.

Best known probably is Amsterdam’ cheeses, but pickled onions and gherkins from ‘Kesbeke‘ are a must in any true Amsterdam catering of appetizers.

Truly special is the Camembert style, sheep cheese called Skaepsrond’ from the ‘Dikhoeve’ farm in Ransdorp. The black pepper sausage from ‘Brandt & Levie‘ does accompany corporate drinks parties like no other and their fennel sausage should not be missed as well.

All these delicacies pair perfectly with a cool beer from brewery ‘het IJ’ and if you’re not into alcohol, a cool apple and pear juice from the Olmenhorst which you can find on our drinks list.

Your party on the Amsterdam canals or on the IJ

You may have a preference for a sailing or floating location. Great idea! Amsterdam has a different charm when viewed from the canals.

Catering delicious food and drinks while sightseeing in Amsterdam by boat is a special experience.

We can and will be pleased to organize your event on a canal cruise.  Make sure to ask the representative of the cruise company about their house rules and options to bring on the boat.
