At Fan Thai Sticks we believe the best Thai food shouldn’t cost the earth – literally! While we’re busy perfecting our Pad Thai, we’re equally committed to making sure our environmental footprint is smaller than a grain of jasmine rice.

Local Love: Why Our Ingredients Don’t Need a Passport

Ever wondered why our Thai food tastes so fresh? It’s not just our cooking skills (though they are pretty spectacular). We’ve partnered with local heroes like GC Smith Butchers to source quality ingredients that haven’t racked up more air miles than a business executive.

Our chicken satay skewers begin their journey just down the road, not halfway across the world. The result? Meat that’s fresher, tastier, and with a carbon footprint small enough to make an environmentalist swoon.

No More Food Mountains: Calculating Catering Just Right

We’ve all been to those events where there’s enough leftover food to feed a small country. At
Fan Thai Sticks! , we’ve developed a sixth sense for portion planning (it’s like a superpower, but with less spandex and more spreadsheets).

By carefully estimating guest numbers for each event, we prepare just what’s needed – no more, no less. Your guests leave satisfied, not stuffed, and perfectly good food doesn’t end up in the bin. It’s win-win-win: for your wallet, our planet, and those guests who don’t need to unbutton their pants after dinner.

Packaging with Purpose: No Plastic Fantastic Here

Remember when taking home leftovers meant a small tower of plastic containers that would outlive your grandchildren? Those days are gone at Fan Thai Sticks!

Our takeaway containers and plates are 100% compostable, meaning they’ll break down faster than it takes to master the pronunciation of “Tom Kha Gai.” These eco-warriors of the packaging world ensure your Green Curry doesn’t come with a side of environmental guilt.

Why Being Green Makes Our Food More Delicious

Here’s our not-so-secret secret: Sustainable food actually tastes better. When ingredients haven’t traveled halfway around the world, when they’re in season and at their peak, when they’re prepared with care and consideration – you can taste the difference.

So next time you’re savoring our Massaman curry, remember you’re not just treating your taste buds – you’re also being kind to the planet. And doesn’t that make each bite even more delicious?

LET’S STIR THINGS UP – REQUEST A QUOTE

I am Nok-your friend from Udon Thani streets in Thailand. Being spoiled with my partner, Mihai, we took a leap of faith in 2019. With some adventure and spontaneous thought, we left behind our catering jobs and stepped into what would unravel in front of us as the culinary roller-coaster ride of one’s lifetime! 🎢

Fun fact! If life hands out lemons, book a trip to Thailand! Who knows? It could change your whole life (and palate)!

From that point on, come 2025, we have rolled out 100,000 spring rolls by hand and gulped down no less than 750 liters of coconut milk-because who doesn’t love a good curry?🌴Our Thai food has traversed all corners of the UK: from Brighton to Leicester to London. We catered for over 200 events during peak seasons, being booked out every weekend! Be it corporate parties, weddings, or birthdays, we provide a flavor to keep you and your guests smiling.

Warner Bros Studios, Holland & Barrett, and NHS are among our amazing clients; we are not just chefs, we are flavor potions working our magic in kitchens all over.

In Thailand, good food means good mood! 🎉 The culinary creations marry the 4 fundamental tastes of Thai cuisine-salty, spicy, sweet, and sour. Give your taste buds a treat: it’s like a dance party!

Our outdoor and indoor catering services meet your food craving, whether we are indoors having a lovely sit-down dinner or creating a garden party experience under the stars. We have perfected speed, delivering our scrumptious food at a speedy rate of 5 guests every minute (yup, 300 an hour-you read that right!). Just a quick word: terms and conditions apply on the menu, because we can’t do it all (yet)! 😉

We are most centrally based in Essex and serve all of England with authentic Thai food and fun. Let the fun begin! 🌈🥢

Hello and welcome, fellow event enthusiasts! Whether you’re planning a wedding, a birthday bash, or an office corporate party where Janet from Accounts inevitably spills red wine on important spreadsheets, one thing is certain: food is a big deal. But did you know that the alcohol factor can add a little extra spice (and appetite) to your catering plans? Let’s dive into why ordering more portions when alcohol is involved is not just a good idea, but an absolute must!

1. The Magic of Liquid Courage 🍷✨

First things first: once the corks start popping, people get brave. And what’s the first thing they do when they’re feeling confident? They strut up to the buffet like they own the place! Suddenly, that modest Thai tapas platter you put together looks like a magician’s disappearing act. Poof! Gone. And let’s be honest, no one keeps track of how many spring rolls they’ve inhaled after the third glass of Prosecco. As the saying goes, “What happens at the buffet, stays at the buffet!”

2. The All-You-Can-Eat Challenge 😋🏆

Every event has that one person—a cousin, a friend, or even Uncle Bob—who treats a buffet like an Olympic sport. They’ll pile their plate high enough to warrant an environmental impact assessment! When alcohol is flowing, suddenly every guest feels like a contestant in an all-you-can-eat challenge. And while we love a competitive spirit, your carefully curated food selection might not survive the frenzy. The result? Hurt feelings, hungry guests, and you, biting your nails in the corner!

3. A Full Stomach is a Happy Stomach 🍽️😊

Alcohol hits differently on an empty stomach, folks! With a few drinks in hand, folks are suddenly inspired to savour every bite—until they suddenly find themselves forgetting to pace themselves. Mixed drinks can create a perfect storm of appetite, making that shrimp cocktail look more inviting than ever. Trust us when we say that a full belly leads to happy, dance-floor-dominating guests.

4. The Aftermath of Happy Hours 😴💤

There’s a reason they say “the morning after” in hushed tones. A little too much fun means a lot more food in the form of late-night fridge raids. When guests smell those leftover Pad Thai , they’re not just going to think about it—they’re going to come hunting. It’s a culinary treasure hunt, and you want to make sure that treasure chest is overflowing with goodies!

5. “I Swear I Thought That Was an Appetiser!” 🥴🙈

Ever been in a situation where someone feels just fine until they realise they’ve eaten the last of the satay chicken ? There’s usually enough tension in the air to cut with a butter knife! By planning for more portions, you can avoid the “I thought that was just a sample” debacle that leads to ruffled feathers (and an unholy amount of awkwardness).

The Final Verdict

In the end, ordering 20% extra portions when alcohol is present is your insurance policy against hungry guests, competitive eaters, and late-night bread-thieves! Here at FanThai Sticks, we take pride in crafting just the right menu for your event, ensuring everyone leaves feeling satisfied and ready to Karaoke their hearts out!

So, the next time you’re planning an event, remember: when in doubt, add an extra tray of that delicious Thai spring roll or another platter of those mesmerizing Thai fishcakes. Because happy guests mean happy hosting, and a night to remember (or, perhaps, forget in the morning)!

Cheers, and happy planning from the team at FanThai Sticks—where every event is a feast fit for your friends and family! 🍻

Let’s face it, Thai food is that friend who comes to the party with a piñata full of surprises. Sometimes you never know what you’re going to get, but you know it’s gonna be a blast! Here are just a few of the many reasons why Thai needs to be a VIP at the dinner table:

Thai food is the culinary equivalent of a fireworks show where sweet, sour, salty, and spicy all come together in perfect harmony and will make your taste buds do the cha-cha! From the zest of lemongrass to the creaminess of coconut milk, each bite was an adventure.

2. Fresh Ingredients:

3. Varieties are the Spice of Life:

4. It’s Social: Thai food is for sharing!

Round up your friends, family, or that neighbor of yours that always seems to be borrowing your lawnmower, and chow down together. There is nothing that brings people closer than a table full of dishes and a few friendly food fights-mostly.
