F&B INTERVIEW OF THE MONTH
WASTE MANAGEMENT
Malta Business Review
BEYOND
EXPECTATIONS...
By Jean Paul Abela
When sitting down with Noel Borg of Mannarinu Caterers, the conversation inevitably turns
to the humble beginning of their catering business in the 1950s. Years later the business was
inherited by the younger son Noel and his wife Bridget who nowadays along with their two
sons manage a company committed to creating catering that surpasses expectations.
“Going that extra mile for our clients has
always been part of our vision as we seek
to provide delicious food with added
touches of class, creativity and quality,”
says Noel Borg of Mannarinu Caterers.
Nothing sets the tone of one’s celebration
quite like an elegant, delicious menu.
One of the most important choices one
will make, as far as guests’ enjoyment is
concerned, is the cuisine one chooses to
offer. Whether one is having a reception
with an offering of small bites and
tasty treats, or planning out a refined,
three-course meal – one must have full
confidence in his wedding caterer.
The hallmarks of Mannarinu caterers
With over 50 years’ experience in the
industry, Mannarinu and its highly trained
team has the knowledge to guide it’s
clientele to perfection. Mannarinu has keen
attention to detail, high level of customer
service coupled with a true sense of style in
food display and table settings.
The team is passionate about making every
event an incredible experience, regardless
of the size. Whether entertaining a few
friends for a special occasion, hosting a
substantial amount of guests for a lavish
gala, or planning a garden wedding,
dedicated staff will assist the clients’ needs
and challenges before flawlessly planning
the event.
What kinds of cuisine does Mannarinu
Caterers specialise in?
Mannarinu is well known for its vast
selection of food items, from traditional
delicacies to recent innovations. All items
are carefully produced locally from the
finest and most natural ingredients with
no added preservatives. Mannarinu can
also customise menus to one’s unique
taste. Food stations are a creative way to
showcase the character of the new couple
while wowing guests and pleasing an array
of picky palates. Mannarinu’s signature
dishes exquisitely fuse classic recipes
along with innovative items. Guests may
feast their eyes and bellies with spicy
tuna, crazy crab, cooked salmon and Ebi
kyuri at the Sushi table. The key to a show
stopping coffee table is all in the detail and
understanding on how best to display your
delicacies. With over thirty types of mini
petite fours and two chocolate fountains,
our coffee table makes a statement at your
wedding. The Cheese and Parma table
includes cheeses from a variety of regions
as well as quality salami and Parma ham.
The Pasta table also offers an array of
pasta accompanied with different sauces.
For an extra touch of class and celebration,
guests will have the opportunity to choose
from a selection of whiskies from the
Whisky Bar.

Although Mannarinu’s past has been a
celebration of success and the present
is very bright, the journey never stops.
The future entails continuous hard
work. "You're only as good as your last
performance. The past is part of history
but you have to build on last week or last
night's performance to ensure the future
remains strong,” explains Noel. MBR

Wasteserv Chairman, Mr David Borg said,
“It is truly an honour for Wasteserv to have
been selected as a National Champion
in this prestigious competition. We are
extremely proud of the work we’ve done
so far to serve the local community and
we are glad to see our achievements
being recognised at this level in Europe.”
Wasteserv’s success in improving
drastically the waste management
infrastructure in Malta over the past 2
years formed the basis of the company’s
entry into the competition. Between
April 2015 and February 2016, Wasteserv
Malta inaugurated 4 new facilities – a
Civic Amenity site at Ta’ Qali, a central
location in Malta, an Autoclave Rendering
Plant complementing the incinerator
facility in Marsa, an underground
new waste facility in Gozo and finally
the biggest achievement being the
inauguration of the €50 million ‘Malta
North’ facility located within the Magħtab
Environmental Complex. In line with
Wasteserv’s vision, a vision redefined
following a rebranding exercise launched
in July 2015, all these new facilities
contribute to ‘creating resources from
waste’ either through the preparation
of materials for recycling or through the
generation of renewable energy from the
treatment of non-recyclable waste. MBR
