Inspire with themed buffet tables

Buffet tables are more than a practical set-up; they are the calling card of every event. With the right combination of presentation and range, you create a total experience that appeals instantly. HANOS offers inspiration for buffet tables in a wide range of themes, from stylish non-food styling to surprising food concepts. Think atmospheric settings that set the tone, combined with global flavours such as Asian street food, Italian classics, refined tartlets and contemporary takes on satay and bites. The result is a buffet that is not only functional, but also memorable.

Bar snacks from the oven

No deep-frying, but plenty of convenience. Snacks that are easy to prepare in the oven or speed oven are the solution on location. Think of a versatile range of Dutch bar snacks that can be prepared quickly and efficiently, without the hassle of frying fat or transporting oil. Practical, safe and flexible.
