How Many People Does a Grazing Board Feed in Dubai?

When planning an event, one of the most common questions is how much food to order — especially when it comes to grazing boards.

Grazing boards are designed for sharing and can vary depending on the number of guests, the type of event, and whether other food is being served.

Standard Grazing Board Sizes

At Project Dining, grazing boards are typically designed as:

• Small (4–6 guests)Perfect for intimate gatherings or as part of a larger spread.

• Medium (8–12 guests)Ideal for small parties or as a main feature for casual events.

• Large (15–20 guests)Great for bigger gatherings or as a centerpiece alongside other catering options.

• 
  

When to Choose a Grazing Table

For events with 20 guests or more, many hosts choose to upgrade to a grazing table. This allows for a more abundant and visually impactful setup, especially for celebrations and corporate events.

What Affects Portion Size?

Several factors influence how much you need:

• whether the board is the main food or a starter

• the time of day (lunch vs evening event)

• guest appetite and event style

•
