Whether you are celebrating Christmas, Hannukah, New Years, family reunions, potluck get togethers or simply just because, your secret to success should be seafood party trays for last minute holiday gatherings. With so much to do around the holidays, it is hard to carve out time for throwing a party for friends and family. One of the primary reasons we offer seafood party trays is so that planning out a fantastic menu isn’t the thing holding you back from inviting people over and enjoying time together.
How Seafood Party Trays Can Make Your Next Gathering the Event of the Year
Cajun food is something traditionally enjoyed in the company of family, friends, and loved ones, so it only makes sense to make this the highlight of your party menu. With holiday parties in full swing, your guests may have already attended one or two gatherings, typically featuring traditional holiday fare, so why not shake things up and serve your guests delicious, savory seafood instead?
We offer Cajun seafood party trays that can feed a crowd as small as eight all the way up to sixteen. Are you having thirty plus people at your gathering? No problem, simply order two of our biggest trays and that should do the trick. We offer three party tray sizes:
- Tray serving 8 – 10 people
- Tray serving 10 – 12 people
- Tray serving 14 – 16 people
Our seafood platters feature a variety of mouthwatering Cajun specialties such as shrimp, catfish, and even chicken tenders. Not only is seafood an excellent source of protein, but it also offers variety. Order your seafood boiled, fried, or both if that better accommodates your guests.
While our Cajun seafood trays are already amazing, we know that for many customers, their Cajun dinner just isn’t complete without pairing it with one of our flavorful dips, including ranch, 7Spice butter, remoulade sauce, tartar sauce, and cocktail sauce.
The seafood and dip are the just the entrée portion of the party trays. Also making an appearance are some traditional Cajun starters and sides including boudin balls, corn on the cob, red skin potatoes, dirty rice and house salad.
Why so much food in every party tray? We know what a hit Cajun goodness can be at a party, so we do our best to plan for a crowd. For this reason, may we also suggest that you consider ordering a few of our house specialties a la carte to add to the table? Some of our customers’ favorites include:
- Gumbo – A delicious, rich combination of Shrimp, Chicken, Sausage, and Crawfish Tails (when in season)
- Etouffee – Shrimp Etouffee is available year-round, and Crawfish Etouffee is available when in season
- Red Beans and Rice with Sausage
- Cajun Fried Rice
Comprehensively, this Cajun spread of party trays and house specialties can give your gathering a wow factor that will have your guests talking about it for years to come! We believe there’s no greater compliment to the host!
Order Now to Secure Your Party Menu
With restaurants across Greater Houston, we are ready to serve you. If you are considering throwing a holiday gathering at the last minute, give us a call today to put your order in. The more advance notice you can provide is generally appreciated, but we do our best to make even the short notice orders come together.
When placing your order, we recommend considering whether you will need to alter the spice level. If ordering two seafood party trays, consider ordering one with a higher level of Cajun heat and one with a milder seasoning. It can also be a good idea to make sure you order plenty of chicken tenders for those who do not like seafood.
By delegating the food responsibilities to us, this leaves the host free to focus on other elements of their holiday gathering such as drinks, desserts, decorations, activities, and fun! All the host needs to do is make sure they order enough food, set a reminder on their calendar of when to come pick it up, and then bring it straight to the food table for a feast that is bound to impress their guests.
Advantages of Ordering Party Trays for Your Next Get Together
Parties can take a lot of work in even the slowest of seasons, but it can feel even more overwhelming during the holidays. But now that you know ordering seafood party trays is the key element for streamlining hosting duties, let’s talk about three other advantages of utilizing this method:
- Saving Time. Take a minute and consider how many hours it would take you, as the host, to plan, shop for, and prepare entrees and sides for a sizeable crowd of family, friends, or co-workers. Don’t forget to add in the time it will take to clean all the pots and pans and kitchen counters before the guests arrive. Now, compare that with the amount of time it takes to choose which 7SPICE Cajun seafood party trays you will need, place the order, and pick up the order. What a difference! Not to mention, you should have more energy for the party since you didn’t spend the hours prior to the party cooking and cleaning.
- Easy Display. Our party trays are meant to simply uncover and serve. There is no need to re-plate the food on them unless you simply wish to. Other than adding some tongs to avoid guests putting their fingers on the food, your party tray will be ready to go!
- Fast Cleanup. Most hosts are on a natural high after a party, having gotten to see their loved ones and spend quality time with them. The fastest way to ruin that feeling is realizing they will be spending at least the next hour cleaning up after guests. Empty and disposable party trays need only be thrown away. No dish washing is necessary, and that is a gift in and of itself!
Trust us for your Cajun seafood party trays for last minute holiday gatherings, and let us help you make the best and most talked about bash of the season.
