Imagine it’s 12:55 PM on a workday in the boardroom. Your team is ready for a break. You peel back the catering platter lid, and then the mood drops instantly. It’s that same spread again. Ham sandwiches, party pies, and a fruit platter dominated by rockmelon. It fills the stomach, but does it make your team feel appreciated?
For small teams, lunch is one of the few times everyone gets to sit down and connect. Why settle for catering that doesn’t drive the conversation? If you are organizing food for a small office or team meeting, you don’t need a corporate budget to upgrade the menu. You need to switch to sushi. Here is how a sushi platter gives you a fresh crowd-pleasing idea for your office.
1. The Visually Engaging Platters
Research in gastrophysics has shown that visual presentation can influence our perception of flavour and appetite (sometimes even more than the food itself). A bright, colourful tray of sushi rolls, sashimi, and nigiri instantly changes the vibe of a meeting because it engages the brain before the first bite.
When you put a Premium Platter or Fresh Salmon Platter on the table, it stops being simply food, and starts being a talking point. And as everyone picks a piece, it will turn a standard meeting into a mini-event.
2. The Solution for Dietary Requirements
In a small team, dietary requirements are personal. You know person A is gluten-free, B is vegetarian, and someone else doesn’t eat raw fish. Trying to order individual meals to suit everyone is another logistical challenge. Our Regular Sushi Platter is your go-to to solve this problem. You can choose up to 6 different flavours per platter, so you can build a custom mix that covers everyone.
For A, who is gluten-free, we have many GF options like Tuna Avocado and Prawn Avocado Mayo.
For B, the vegetarian, load up on Tofu Cucumber and Veggie Tempura Teriyaki.
As for the others who can’t eat raw fish, you can add Chicken Katsu Teriyaki and California Crab rolls.
Everyone shares the same platter, but eats what they want.
3. The Productivity Menu
The post-lunch crash isn’t a myth. If you eat a heavy meal of pasta or greasy pies, don’t be surprised when the whole office struggles to stay awake during the afternoon session. Sushi is the productivity hack you need to know. It’s high in protein, which your team needs to power through the afternoon. It stays fresh when you present it on the table, and won’t leave you feeling sluggish afterward.
4. The Flexible Feast
You don’t need to be a huge corporation to order our catering. For a team of four, for example, one Regular Sushi Platter is a perfect lunch. If you have ten members, grab two platters and add a Snack Platter (with gyoza and spring rolls) for some hot finger food.
