Halal company buffet in Paris: a worked example for 30 people
A halal buffet for 30 people: sharing menu from €1,076 to €1,166 excl. VAT or cocktail from €1,031 to €1,691, delivery included. Line by line.
A halal company buffet for 30 people comes in two formats: a sharing menu for a sit-down or standing meal, from €1,076 to €1,166 excl. VAT delivery included, or a cocktail for a standing reception, from €1,031 to €1,691 excl. VAT depending on the number of pieces. At L'Écrin Traiteur, the whole savoury menu is halal and pork-free, alcohol-free: one buffet for every guest, with no separate table.
Option 1: the sharing menu for 30 people
Three menus, each sized for 8 to 12 guests: thirty guests are served by three menus (for example three times ten). The price is per person.
| Menu | Price per person excl. VAT | 30 people | Delivery | Total excl. VAT | Per person |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Le Jardin (100% vegetarian) | €34.90 | €1,047 | €29 | €1,076 | €35.87 |

Drinks are extra: for a one-hour meal, 20 people need €121 excl. VAT of drinks (4 flasks, 2 L of juice, 5 bottles of water); see the sample quote for 20 people. Hard tableware is hired, on quote; disposable cups, napkins and cutlery come at no extra cost.
Option 2: the cocktail for 30 people
| Formula | Pieces | 30 people | Drinks (juice, water) | Delivery | Total excl. VAT |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| L'Invitation | 8 | €897 | €104.80 | €29 | €1,030.80 |
| La Réception | 12 | €1,227 | €104.80 | €29 | €1,360.80 |
| La Célébration | 16 | €1,557 | €104.80 | €29 | €1,690.80 |
The drinks are 8 litres of juice at €9.50 (€76) and 6 bottles of 75 cl water at €4.80 (€28.80), that is €104.80. To toast, a Chardonnay 0%: 5 bottles at €16.90 add €84.50 excl. VAT. La Réception then comes to €1,445.30 excl. VAT, or €48.18 excl. VAT per person.
Which format should you choose?
- A team lunch: the sharing menu, at the table, with dishes placed in the middle.
- A reception, a launch, a year-end party: the cocktail, standing, with pieces offered continuously.
- An afterwork: L'Afterwork, 10 pieces and a cheese board at €35.90 excl. VAT per person.
The difference between the two is detailed in sharing buffet or cocktail.
