Oh, hey! Welcome!

We’re Eat Small Plates, the antidote to your conventional “catering” experience, founded in 2023 by Chef Zikki & Bengingi.

The Eat Small Plates ethos is simple: Sharing food brings people together.

At an Eat Small Plates event we want to see hands reaching across the table, meeting in the middle, and tearing into warm pita.

You celebrate, we host.

But how did we get here?

It was 2015 in the Italian Alps. Chefs Ben & Zikki were both students at Università degli Studi di Scienze Gastronomiche (AKA… The ‘Slow Food’ University); learning about wine and olive oil production, aging processes, fermentation, sourcing, and world food cultures – not just studying food, but immersed in the rhythms of the land and the hands that shape it. Ben & Zikki fell in love with the ethos of Slow Food… and with each other.
Eat Small Plates started with this question: Can the globally diverse principles of thoughtful hospitality—where ingredients are intentional, and connection is central—be brought to the table with the precision of seasoned industry professionals?
We think they can—through how you source, how you eat, and how you gather.
From an intimate family meal to business occasions– at the highest culinary level– we’re delivering distinct, fresh flavors and high-quality service. You celebrate, we host.

Drop us a line today! Everybody has a seat at our table no matter what walk of life you come from. Let us bring your people together.

YASSS!

– BEN & ZIKKI
