For the last 3 years, we happily delivered private dinners and buffet to several of our customers in order to celebrate their daughter's or son's special day! See what Kate says about us:

Alexandra catered for my son's Confirmation. She was extremely professional and had everything set up for lunch when we returned home after the ceremony. The food was outstanding and everyone raved about it! A family member has already requested Alexandra's details! Alexandra was very flexible and made changes to the menu to suit what we wanted, which was very much appreciated. Overall, I would recommend Alexandra 100%!

We will be happy to hear from you for your next event: wedding, birthday, anniversary, confirmation, baptism…

Celebrate the 17th of May - Hurra for 17. Mai !

The 17th of May is the Norwegian Constitution day. A happy day filled with Champagne, Blue-White-Red Norwegian flags, people wearing their traditional Bunad and delicious and regressive food.

Traditionally, Norwegians start with the Champagne breakfast as early as 7am, then go to the parade that takes place in their city to watch the young kids walking with their school classmates, and finally either host a party at their place or head to a crowded restaurant.

What is traditional 17th of May food? As it is a day of celebration, it is common to indulge yourself with lots of sweets and alcohol (remember to drink with moderation… of course!). On the table, you will find: homemade pavlova with Norwegian colors, salmon gravlax, delicious scrambled eggs, the best-cured meat (mostly Spanish) and cheese.

The 17th of May is the opportunity to host family and friends in your home. Why not asking for our buffet and finger food menu? We customize all orders and like to be unconventional yet curious using the best local ingredients, organic when possible. 

Get a stress-free celebration with the best local ingredients and the most beautiful table setting. Why not serving homemade trout gravlax, French cheeses, Lebanese falafels, a fresh gazpacho or a delicious pavlova filled with the first strawberries of the year? Let Hibiscus Dinners and Alexandra Maubant do what they do best: serve you amazing and delicious food right in your dining room.
