Pizza catering in Kortrijk
At a glance
Industrial heritage
A former weaving mill or flax barn with high ceilings and brick: the wood-fired oven outside the gate completes the picture.
For entrepreneurs
Openings, family-firm anniversaries, client days: pizza in pieces suits an audience that stands, talks and wanders between the machines.
The Lys as backdrop
The redesigned banks and bridges give a party by the water a modern feel. We look for the spot with the best mix of view and access.
From flax barn to design loft
The Lys was once called the Golden River, because flax was retted in its water and the region grew prosperous on it. From that history remain factory buildings and barns that today are lofts, studios or event spaces. They have room, character and often a courtyard where the oven comes into its own.
In such an industrial setting we go for a sleek setup: a well-kept tent, tidy work tables, a crew with clearly divided roles. Kortrijk is known for design and enterprise, and guests notice details. You see that in the presentation of the antipasti and in the way the pizzas are served in pieces on boards.
Companies and client events
Around Kortrijk-Noord, along the E17 and towards Harelbeke and Menen, many family firms and SMEs operate. They like to celebrate: a new hall, an anniversary, a client day with a tour. A reception with an Aperitivo and Pizza à volonté works well there, as guests can walk around, look at production and grab a slice in between.
For such events the timing follows the programme: first the managing director’s speech, then the first pizzas from the oven. Give us the contact person who arranges access on the day, especially on a site with a gate or badge system. A guest list of more than a hundred and fifty means an extra baking station.
Guests from Wallonia or northern France are no exception in this border region, a stone’s throw from Lille. Happily, a Neapolitan pizza needs no translation. For a mixed group we do go through beforehand which flavours and dietary wishes there are, so the French-speaking client or supplier knows exactly what lands on their plate.
Riverbanks, outlying villages and rural Kortrijk
The renewed Lys banks with the Broel Towers and the bridges make the centre a place where people like to gather by the water. A private party on a terrace or courtyard in that area does need arrangements about loading and unloading. Where we may stop and for how long, we fix beforehand with the venue or the city.
In Bellegem, Kooigem, Aalbeke and Rollegem the landscape is more rolling and rural, with farms and gardens where space is no problem. That is where the long family parties grow: a Communion, a fiftieth birthday, a garden party in June. The Full experience with tiramisu and cannoli turns such an evening into a complete dinner, with nobody standing at the stove.
Wij hadden een heel fijn communiefeest met dank aan Prestigio Catering. De communicatie vooraf verliep heel vlot en duidelijk en ook de dag zelf was alles tot in de puntjes geregeld, waardoor we zorgeloos konden genieten van het feest…
