A clear 2026 guide to Arabic catering costs per person in KL and Selangor, using real Hadramawt buffet packages, boxed meals, live stations, and logistics costs.

What you'll actually pay

The first question every event planner asks is "how much per person?" Here's an honest answer using our own buffet packages as a real-world benchmark. Arabic buffet catering in the Klang Valley typically scales by how many dishes and what level of protein you want:

Deluxe Course — from RM65 per pax (adds lamb mains and hot dishes)

Supreme Course — from RM80 per pax (adds soups, BBQ and more variety)

Special Course — from RM100 per pax

Royal Course — from RM130 per pax (the full spread — soups, salads, BBQ, seafood, desserts)

Minimum order and SST

All prices are per person and exclude 6% SST. Our minimum order is 30 pax across all packages.

Other ways to cater — and what they cost

Individual boxed meals (bento): from RM18.90 per person — ideal for office distribution where a full buffet isn't practical.
Whole roasted lamb feast: from RM2,800, serving roughly 30–50 guests — a centrepiece for weddings and large celebrations.
Live cooking stations (shawarma, BBQ, kunafa, chocolate fountain): setup from RM500, with per-pax rates on top.

What drives the price up or down

Headcount. Larger groups lower the per-person cost as fixed preparation costs spread across more guests.
Protein choice. Lamb dishes carry a higher add-on than chicken — it's the single biggest swing in a buffet menu.
Service level. Drop-off is cheapest. Add waiters, chef assistants (from RM100 per person for the first 3 hours), live stations or table service and the cost rises with the experience.
Logistics. Transport starts from RM90 depending on distance and group size; multi-floor venues may add a handling fee.
