Extending the signature Xara experience beyond its flagship properties, the catering team offers bespoke services tailored to private celebrations, professional functions, and everything in between. Each event is approached with care and creativity, ensuring not just an occasion, but an unforgettable memory.
One of the driving forces behind Xara Catering’s rise is Chef Adrian Bonello, Chef de Cuisine at The Xara Lodge and Xara Catering. Adrian is a chef deeply rooted in his love for food, agriculture, and the craftsmanship of creating remarkable dishes. His journey, both in the kitchen and in the field, reflects a dedication to fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a reverence for Maltese culinary heritage. Adrian’s hands-on approach, from sourcing produce to leading his kitchen brigade, ensures that each plate is a balance of authenticity and innovation.

At the heart of Adrian’s culinary philosophy is a commitment to freshness and sustainability. Many of the ingredients used in Xara’s menus are harvested directly from Xara Gardens, a project that reflects the brand’s respect for nature and the community. The gardens are cultivated in collaboration with local farmers, carefully planned to grow seasonal vegetables that match the culinary calendar. This farm-to-table approach not only guarantees the highest quality ingredients but also reduces environmental impact supporting a sustainable, community-focused future.
Under Chef Bonello’s leadership, Xara Catering has become one of Malta’s most versatile and respected catering services. The team’s ability to adapt to a diverse array of events, whether an intimate dinner for close friends or a grand celebration for hundreds of guests has solidified Xara as the premier choice for clients who demand excellence. Their reputation for professionalism and creativity is matched only by their flawless execution.
Despite its consistent success, Xara Catering remains driven by innovation. Adrian emphasizes the importance of evolving culinary techniques, ensuring the kitchen never stagnates. While their commitment to quality remains unwavering, menus are continually refreshed to reflect modern trends, inventive cooking methods, and the dynamic tastes of their clientele. State-of-the-art equipment and cutting-edge techniques empower Adrian and his team to push creative boundaries while honoring the heart of Maltese gastronomy.
Xara Catering doesn’t just serve food, it crafts unforgettable experiences. By seamlessly blending tradition, innovation, and sustainability, Xara redefines event hospitality in Malta, creating moments as memorable as they are delicious.
