Our story

Three friends.
One table.

Six Hands is a catering kitchen in Egypt, created by three friends who love cooking, hosting and bringing different cuisines together. Our food moves between Egyptian, Moroccan, Asian and international influences: generous, relaxed and made for gathering.

  • The fire

    Grills, roasts and the charred lemons. Anything that comes off the coals.

  • The spice tins

    Tagines, baharat, ras el hanout and the slow pots that take all afternoon.

  • The pass

    Salads, dips, flatbreads and the last handful of herbs before it goes out.

Services

However you gather.

From a Friday lunch at home to a wedding in a garden, we cook, deliver and set the table. We can bring staff, serveware and a live station, or simply drop off the food on time.

  • Family feasts

    Birthdays, Friday lunches and long dinners at home. Big platters, a few dips and plenty of bread, ready to pass around.

    10 – 40guests

  • Weddings & katb el-kitab

    Buffets, grazing tables and late-night stations for engagements and weddings, planned with you and your venue.

    80 – 400guests

  • Iftar & suhoor

    Ramadan spreads timed to the call to prayer: dates, soups, mains and desserts, followed by a lighter suhoor table.

    20 – 200guests

  • Office lunches

    Team lunches, launches and offsites. Boxed or buffet, with clear labels for every dietary need.

    15 – 150guests

  • Grazing tables

    A long table of mezze, cheeses, breads, fruit and sweets that guests help themselves to all evening.

    20 – 120guests

  • Private chef dinners

    All three of us cook in your kitchen and serve a set menu, course by course, at your table.

Good to know

Questions we hear a lot.

How far ahead should I book?

Two weeks is comfortable for most events. For weddings, Eid and anything during Ramadan, get in touch a month or more ahead.

Can you handle allergies and diets?

Yes. A lot of our menu is naturally vegetarian or vegan, and we label every dish on the day. Tell us about allergies in your enquiry and we'll plan around them.

Do you bring plates, staff and equipment?

We can. Drop-off orders arrive in serving platters ready for your table. For buffets and served events we bring staff, serveware and warmers, and we clear up afterwards.

Can we mix cuisines?

That's what we love most. A koshari station next to bao and a tagine is a very Six Hands table. We'll help you balance it so it all works together.

Is there a minimum order?

We cater for six guests and up. Smaller dinners work best as a private chef evening.
