First time booking an event?

Here is how it goes, from the quote to the last plate.

  1. Build your quote

    Pick the experience, the date, the starting time and how many guests, and give the address. Add any extras and say if the food must be halal or vegan. The price shows as you go.

  2. Send it on WhatsApp

    It goes straight to Tony. You talk it through in that chat — the menu, the venue, the time — and he puts the final quote together.

  3. Confirm the booking

    Once you and Tony have agreed the menu and the price, your date is booked.

  4. Enjoy the day

    The chef arrives with everything, sets up, makes the food in front of your guests and cleans up afterwards.

Our story

It started on Tony’s weekends.

From a hotel kitchen to five of his own across Gauteng.

  1. In the beginning

    Weekends in his own kitchen

    Sous chef at the Hilton during the week, building up Japanese catering of his own at the weekends.

  2. Then COVID

    Sushi across Midstream

    Retrenched when the hotel downsized, he started delivering sushi across Midstream from his own kitchen. Wa Zen grew out of those first orders.

  3. Today

    Five kitchens across Gauteng

    Midstream, where it began, is still one of them — and more are on the way.

    • Kyalami
    • Midstreamwhere it began
    • Glen Village
    • Montana
    • Randburg

The standard

Fresh, every time.

I still love making sushi, and I hold every kitchen to the standard I set at home: the freshest fish, the finest quality ingredients make the best food, all made properly with attention to detail.

— Tony Wang, founder
