Our story
Good food, made with love
“The Bite Me Story: A Recipe for Love and Catering Chaos!”
Once upon a time, a boy met a girl in the most serendipitous way. R70 made their paths cross, and after 5 tries, he finally got a date! The adventure began when Burgundy brought them together in a way they never thought possible.
Fast forward to Covid-19, which taught them patience and the art of cooking together. As they whipped up meals in their tiny kitchen, they realized their culinary skills were a match made in heaven! Despite the obstacles, their love only grew stronger. They learned to appreciate the little things.
But the real magic happened in Tankwa, on a work function in the stunning Karoo National Park.
|Their recipe for success? A dash of serendipity, a pinch of persistence, a whole lot of love, and a healthy dose of humor. And when people ask about their story, they say, “It all started with R70, 5 tries, Burgundy, Covid, and Tankwa – and a whole lot of biting humor!”
The Bite Me Motto: “Savor the flavor, laugh at the chaos, and always, always bite back for more!”
Taste meets experience
Fast forward to today and our committed team brings culinary experience that you will even enjoy on a local South African flight soon.
Trusted by top companies
A on-set Breakfast in Cape Town, on the beach, was not only spectacular, but a truly memorable experience, making work even more enjoyable.
We don't just work together. We come to play professionally and when we do it right, we represent Bite Me Catering and its customers at the highest standard. The result is amazing food and amazing people.
I have heard of pop-up restaurants, but never actually experienced one. Bite Me Catering made it feel like they build an experience just for us, and they did it daily for more than 6 weeks. I'm going to miss my personalised chef when I walk into my next chain resturant.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions about our services
What services do you provide?
We’re the catering company trusted by TV and Film crews, private party legends, corporate bigwigs, and that one friend who insists their wedding is “super chill” but actually has a 47‑page mood board.
From on‑set fuel to palace‑level shindigs, we feed humans in every setting — whether they’re behind the camera, in front of it, or dramatically walking down the aisle pretending not to cry.
Our menus flex harder than a stunt double:
• Pre‑packed snacks for when you need grab‑and‑go deliciousness
• Full cold meals that make your hike, or outdoor adventure look like you spent days prepping, & whispering affirmations to your Tupperware
• Event spreads that keep guests fed, happy, and too distracted to ask, “So what do you really do for a living?”
And a tiny heads‑up: don’t be shocked if you spot our pre‑packed snacks on local flights soon. We’re not saying we’re taking over the skies… but we’re also not not saying that.
Do you cater for all dietary requirements?
We’re the catering company that embraces every dietary requirement, preference, allergy, intolerance, lifestyle choice, and “my therapist says I should avoid gluten for emotional reasons” declaration with open arms and full plates.
Whether you identify as vegan, carnivore, pescatarian, flexitarian, keto-curious, carb-positive, plant-forward, spice-averse, or simply “a foodie but like… spiritually,” we honour your truth.
Our chefs navigate dietary needs the way stunt drivers navigate explosions: confidently, dramatically, and with zero casualties. If you can eat it, we’ll make it. If you can’t eat it, we’ll make something else that’s just as delicious and pretend that was the plan all along.
At our table, everyone belongs — no judgment, no side‑eye, no “oh, you’re one of those eaters.” Just flavour, joy, and the kind of inclusive menu that makes even the pickiest guest feel seen, respected, and slightly overwhelmed (in a good way).
If you want, I can punch this up even more, make it shorter, sassier, more corporate, more chaotic, or tailor it to your brand voice.
Do you only cater in the Cape Town area?
We’re proudly Cape Town born‑and‑based — the kind of catering company that brings everything with us. And we mean everything: the gear, the goodies, the gadgets, the grills, the bits, the bobs, and the “just in case” items that somehow always end up saving the day.
Because our service is fully inclusive (and our equipment load could qualify for its own gym membership), we generally operate within the Cape Town metro. It keeps our quality high, our logistics sane, and our team from having to explain to traffic officers why we’re towing what looks like a small village.
But here’s the thing: growth is part of our DNA. If the stars align, the logistics make sense, and your event is calling our name louder than a seagull eyeing your chips, we’re absolutely open to exploring opportunities beyond our usual radius.
Talk to us. Pitch us your idea. Tempt us with your vision.
If it’s doable, we’ll make it happen. If it’s not, we’ll find a creative way to get as close as possible. Either way, the conversation starts with you.
Do you do make meals for private homes?
Absolutely — we do.
Life is busy, chaotic, and full of empire‑building, and we know that doesn’t always leave time to cook something healthy, tasty, and guilt‑free. That’s where we step in.
We prepare fresh, wholesome, pre‑packed meals designed for real people with real schedules. Whether you’re a busy professional, feeding a hungry family, or making sure Mom or Dad has something delicious waiting in the fridge, our weekly home‑delivery menus keep everyone sorted without a single drive‑thru detour.
And it doesn’t stop there.
We also supply pre‑packed meals for schools, corporates, and private functions, so no matter where you are — home, office, classroom, or event — you’re never far from something good to eat.
