Why choose De Vette Mossel Parys for a year-end function?
The end of the working year calls for something a little less formal, and De Vette Mossel Parys offers exactly that.
Instead of another conventional sit-down function, teams can gather in a relaxed setting for a seafood feast, open-fire cooking and plenty of opportunity to chat, laugh and unwind.
- Located just outside Parys in the Free State, De Vette Mossel Parys is positioned as a destination for corporate year-end functions, team celebrations, staff parties, client events, team-building days and themed functions. The venue describes its function offering as fun, informal and laid-back, making it particularly suited to groups looking to celebrate without the usual formal function-room feel.
The centrepiece is the famous 7-course, 13-dish rolling seafood buffet, with many dishes prepared right in front of guests over open fires. Menu options can also be customised to suit a group, and a spit option is available.
The feast starts with freshly baked potbrood served with farm butter and sweet apricot jam, followed by mussel meat with onions, plenty of garlic and farm butter and mussels in the half shell steamed with onions and white wine.
The seafood continues with West Coast snoek with sweet potato, alongside both a meat potjie and a seafood potjie. Rice, garden salad and a vegetable dish round out the savoury selection, followed by seasonal fruit, coffee and koeksisters.
The rolling format means the meal is part of the occasion rather than simply a series of courses arriving at the table. With food prepared over open fires and dishes continuing to make their way to guests, it creates a natural setting for conversation and togetherness.
For companies looking to add a little more personality to their end-of-year celebration, De Vette Mossel Parys also caters for themed functions.
