Burnaby sits right in the middle of everything. Close to Vancouver, close to the Tri-Cities, close to Surrey — but when it comes to finding reliable halal meal prep that actually tastes like home cooking, the options thin out fast. Most halal restaurants in Burnaby are great for eating out, but ordering delivery four or five nights a week gets expensive and repetitive.
Last Summer Catering gives Burnaby families a different option. We cook fresh halal meals every week in our Surrey-based commercial kitchen, portion them into generous 28 oz containers, and deliver them to your door on Sundays. Turkish-inspired dishes, Mediterranean flavours, high-protein options — all halal, all made from scratch.
Every week we release a new menu built around seasonal ingredients and customer favourites. You pick the meals you want, place your order by Thursday evening, and your food arrives on Sunday.
There's no contract. No minimum order. You can order one meal to try or stock your fridge for the entire week.
If you prefer consistency, our weekly subscription plans auto-deliver your selected meals each week. Pause or cancel whenever you need to — no penalty, no hassle.
Our kitchen runs on real ingredients and proper technique. No shortcuts, no pre-made sauce packets, no fillers. Here's what a typical week might include:
Charcoal-style adana kebab with saffron rice. Braised lamb shanks with roasted root vegetables. Grilled chicken shawarma bowls with pickled turnip and tahini. Turkish red lentil soup. Stuffed grape leaves with herbed ground beef. Roasted eggplant with pomegranate molasses.
We draw from Turkish and broader Mediterranean cooking traditions, and the menu rotates so there's always something new. See what's cooking this week.
The Muslim community in Burnaby has grown significantly, especially around Edmonds, Metrotown, and the Brentwood area. Finding halal groceries isn't the issue — finding the time to actually cook them is.
That's where we come in. Our customers are busy professionals, parents with young kids, students at SFU and BCIT, and families who want halal food they can trust without spending every evening in the kitchen.
What keeps them ordering week after week: the portions are large (28 oz, not the tiny containers you get from most meal prep services), the food is genuinely good (not bland "healthy" food that nobody looks forward to eating), and everything is halal from source to plate. We don't operate a mixed kitchen.
We deliver to all Burnaby neighbourhoods every Sunday:
Metrotown, Edmonds, Brentwood, Lougheed, Highgate, Deer Lake, South Slope, Burnaby Heights, Capitol Hill, Willingdon Heights, and Burnaby Mountain (SFU campus area).
We also cover Surrey, Langley, Vancouver, Richmond, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Delta, and White Rock.
One-time orders: Pick and choose from our current menu. No commitment required. Most individual meals are $12-$18 per 28 oz container.
Subscriptions: Set up a weekly subscription for automatic delivery. You choose your meals, we handle the rest.
Compare that to restaurant delivery in Burnaby — easily $30-45 per person once you add delivery fees, service charges, and tips. Our meal prep runs a fraction of that cost for portions that are often bigger.
Hosting a gathering at home, a community hall event, or a corporate lunch at your Burnaby office? We provide halal catering for groups of any size. Our catering menu includes buffet-style Turkish spreads, grilled platters, and fully customized menus for weddings, Eid celebrations, baby showers, and corporate functions.
