Start with the occasion, not just the photo

Choosing a seafood platter in Voorschoten starts with your plans. Will it be shared snacks alongside bread, cheese and other dishes, or the main part of the meal? Guest numbers alone do not determine the right quantity. Tell us how you intend to serve the platter.

At Schaap’s Vishandel we help you choose a platter for your guests and occasion. The standard seafood platter costs €16.50 per person and the deluxe platter €18.50. Extras are charged at shop prices.

How many guests are joining?

The quantity depends on guest numbers and what else you serve. Tell us whether the platter is for drinks, lunch or dinner so we can advise on a suitable amount.

Tell us whether children are joining, what other food you will offer and whether some guests do not want fish or shellfish. We can discuss a suitable arrangement. Do not choose solely by platter name: the rest of your menu matters too.

Smoked fish, shrimp or a combination?

For a bespoke mixed platter, discuss the fish, shrimp and salads you enjoy. Tell us about particular preferences or a special occasion on WhatsApp so we can help you choose.

A group that loves smoked fish need not choose the same bespoke platter as guests who prefer shrimp. Mention any extras or items you would like served separately so we can discuss what is possible.

Agree budget and price in advance

The standard seafood platter costs €16.50 per person and the deluxe platter €18.50. Extras are charged at shop prices.

If you have a budget for the whole gathering, tell us the amount, guest numbers and favourite products. This is more useful than simply asking for a large platter. Arrange a platter with us on WhatsApp; we can also discuss individual fish products and other requests.

For a party, birthday or other occasion, contact us on WhatsApp to discuss your preferred platter. We agree contents, any extras, price and collection personally.

Tell us the occasion and guest numbers, and mention dietary needs straight away so we can discuss how to accommodate them.
