FAQ
1. What food options are suitable for school events and functions?
For student gatherings, our Pide (Turkish Pizza) varieties—such as Cheese, Ground Beef, or Spinach—are the most popular choices, offering a healthier, handmade alternative to standard fast-food pizza. Lahmacun (thin crispy dough with minced meat) is another excellent finger food. For sit-down school banquets, Chicken Souvlaki served with Rice or Meatballs (Köfte) are mild, kid-friendly protein options that are easy to serve.
2. Do you offer kid-friendly and allergy-aware meal options?
Yes. Inclusivity is a priority for us:
Kid-Friendly: We offer familiar favorites like Cheese Pide, Fries, and mild Chicken Shish.
Allergy & Dietary Awareness: Our menu is 100% Halal, satisfying a key requirement for many schools. We offer Vegetarianoptions (Vegetarian Pide, Hummus). Note: As our bakery section uses pistachios and walnuts for desserts like Baklava, please discuss severe nut allergies with us during the consultation.
3. Is Mama Fatma the chef behind your school catering offerings?
No. "Mama Fatma" is the brand name representing our family-style hospitality. All school catering orders are prepared by a team of professional chefs in our commercial kitchen, ensuring consistent quality, hygiene, and efficiency for large-volume orders.
4. Do you cater to both student and teacher appreciation events?
Yes, we tailor the experience to the audience.
For Students: We provide fun, casual buffet stations with trays of sliced Pide and easy-to-eat appetizers.
For Teachers & Staff: We offer more formal "Teacher Appreciation Lunches" featuring our premium Mix Kebab Platters (Adana, Lamb Chops, Chicken), fresh salads, and plated service to treat your staff to a special dining experience.
5. Can you deliver during school hours or evenings?
Yes. Our kitchen operates 7 days a week, typically from late morning to late evening. We can deliver hot lunches during specific school lunch hours (e.g., 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM) or cater evening functions like award ceremonies, concerts, or parent-teacher nights.
6. Are your services approved for school boards or public use?
We operate a fully licensed, insured, and health-inspected commercial facility in Mississauga. Our Halal Certificationmakes us a preferred vendor for many schools within the Peel and Toronto school boards that require inclusive dietary options for their diverse student bodies.
7. Do you offer bulk discounts for larger schools or districts?
While we do not publish a fixed "School District Price List," our customizable menu approach allows us to work within strict school budgets. For high-volume orders, we can suggest cost-effective menu configurations—such as focusing on Pide assortmentsand Chicken dishes—to maximize value for large groups.
8. Are dessert and drink options included in your packages?
Beverages and desserts can be added to any catering package.
Drinks: We offer individual canned sodas, bottled water, and Ayran (yogurt drink).
Desserts: Trays of Baklava or individual Rice Pudding (Sütlaç) cups are popular additions to celebrate special occasions.
9. Can you cater PTA meetings, fundraisers, or graduation ceremonies?
Yes, we are equipped for the full range of school activities:
PTA Meetings: Light refreshments, tea/coffee service, and appetizers.
Fundraisers: Our BBQ Catering service is a huge hit for outdoor school fairs and "Fun Fair" fundraisers.
Graduations: We provide full-service banquet catering (buffet or plated) for large gymnasium graduation dinners.
