Kitty party
An afternoon of chaat, not a sit-down lunch.
Four o'clock, pure vegetarian, and everyone is talking rather than eating a full plate. What works is a chaat counter and small plates people can hold in one hand — a heavy thali goes cold on the table.
- 12–40 guests
- Afternoon, 4pm
- 24 hours' notice
- Buffet setup advised
What to put on the buffet
- Live counter
- Pani puri, sev puri, dahi puri
- Small plates
- Coin vada pav, mini samosa, kothimbir vadi
- Something hot
- Pav bhaji or misal, served from a chafer
- Sweet and tea
- Shrikhand cups, masala chai
What hosts get wrong
Skip the rice and the gravies entirely. At this hour they come back nearly untouched, and the budget is better spent on a second chaat item.

Budgeting a kitty party
Kitty party: the questions we are asked
How many guests is a kitty party usually?
Most run to 12–40 guests, and 24 is the headcount we plan around by default. Tell us yours and the spread is scaled to it rather than to a package size.
What does catering a kitty party cost?
Menus run ₹299–₹399 per guest, so 24 guests works out around ₹7,176–₹9,576 on the food, with delivery and GST on top. That is an indication rather than a quote — the quote follows once we have your date, headcount and menu.
How much notice do you need?
24 hours' notice for this one. Sooner is better for weekend and festival dates, which fill first.
When is it served, and how?
Afternoon, 4pm. Buffet setup advised.
