Our Story
Passion on Every Plate
Who We Are
Born from a Love of Food & Family
Ali Catering & Events was founded by Barkat Ali — a man whose passion for food and people laid the foundation for everything we are today. What began as a love of cooking for family and friends has, through Barkat's unwavering hard work and dedication, grown into one of the most trusted catering companies in the region.
Over the past 40 years, Barkat Ali has built Ali Catering & Events from the ground up — earning a reputation for excellence, consistency, and heartfelt hospitality that speaks for itself. Every event we cater is a reflection of his commitment to quality and his belief that great food brings people together.
We specialise in Pakistani cuisine with a modern twist, crafting menus that honour tradition while embracing contemporary presentation. From intimate gatherings of 50 to grand celebrations of 1,000+, we bring the same care and attention to every single plate.
Our team of experienced chefs and event professionals work closely with you from the very first consultation through to the final course — ensuring your event is everything you imagined and more.
