Valentine’s Day Catering Ideas in Singapore

Planning valentines day catering in Singapore for a romantic evening at home? Skip the fully booked restaurants and the awkward queues, and let Sushijiro Catering bring a refined Japanese dinner to your door instead. With roots in the Sushi Jiro omakase restaurant and a central kitchen led by a Japanese culinary team, we plate intimate dinners and sashimi platters that turn 14 February into a private fine-dining moment, delivered islandwide.

Why dine in this Valentine’s Day

Singapore restaurants are packed on Valentine’s Day, with set menus, fixed seatings and a clock ticking on your table. Catering at home flips that. You set the music, the lighting and the pace, and the food arrives ready to enjoy. A Japanese dinner is perfect for it — sashimi and sushi feel luxurious yet light, and the shared, course-by-course rhythm of Japanese dining naturally slows the evening down.

Valentines day catering for two

An intimate dinner does not need a banquet. A well-composed spread for two might include:

• A premium sashimi selection — salmon, tuna and seasonal fish as the romantic centrepiece.
• An assorted sushi and maki platter for variety without excess.
• A warm course such as salmon teriyaki, agedashi tofu or tempura to balance the cold dishes.
• A donburi or chirashi bowl to round out the meal comfortably.
• Japanese desserts like mochi or matcha treats to finish on a sweet note.

Setting the scene at home

Plating matters as much as the food on a date night. We can arrange platters so they look striking the moment they arrive, ready to lift straight onto your table. Add a few candles, chilled sake or a favourite wine, and the catering does the heavy lifting while you focus on the company. For couples who want to cook together, a temaki spread lets you assemble hand rolls side by side as part of the evening.

Small-group options for a couples’ gathering

Not every Valentine’s celebration is a table for two. Some couples host a relaxed dinner with a few close friends, or a Galentine’s gathering. Our small-group and mini-buffet formats scale a romantic Japanese spread up to six, eight or more guests without losing the sense of occasion, with shared platters that keep the table sociable.

Portions for an intimate dinner

For two people enjoying a leisurely Japanese dinner, a generous sashimi or sushi platter plus one or two warm dishes and dessert is usually ample. If sashimi is the star, plan around 10 to 14 pieces each across the evening. For small-group celebrations we scale proportionally and balance cold and warm items. Tell us how many you are hosting when you request a quote and we confirm exact quantities.

Wine, sake and pairing notes

A Japanese dinner pairs beautifully with the right drink, and getting it right elevates the whole evening. Crisp, dry sake or a clean junmai complements sashimi without overwhelming it, while a chilled sparkling wine or a light, mineral white works just as well for couples who prefer wine. For the warm courses, a slightly fuller white or a soft red can hold its own against teriyaki and tempura. We focus on the food and leave the drinks to you, but we are always happy to suggest which dishes flatter which pairings so you can plan a balanced, romantic flow from the first bite to the last.

No Pork, No Lard and dietary care

If your partner or guests avoid pork, our kitchen makes it easy — we are strictly No Pork, No Lard across the board. In the spirit of honesty, we are NPNL but not halal-certified and never imply otherwise. Vegetarian dates are well looked after too, with inari, vegetable maki, tempura vegetables and tofu dishes that hold their own on a romantic table.

Delivery timing for the big night

We deliver islandwide, including the CBD, Marina Bay and condos across the island. For a dinner date, we recommend timing delivery shortly before you plan to sit down so sashimi is at its freshest. Let us know your ideal serving time and we plan the drop around it.

Booking for 14 February

Valentine’s Day is a high-demand date, so the earlier you book, the better your choice of delivery slot and fish allocation. Aim to confirm at least three to four days ahead. Planning a last-minute surprise? Call or WhatsApp +65 9739 1334 and we will be straight with you about what is possible.
