About the Chafer template
Built for caterers
Chafer suits an event caterer who quotes per guest and cooks at the venue: weddings, office events and private parties. It is not built for a restaurant's own dining room.
What's on the site
- Home — your services, client quotes, why people book you, menus, venues, your team, photographs and articles
- About — who you are, how booking works in five steps, client quotes and your team
- Services — every kind of event you cater, each with its own page, what you offer and a quote request form
- Menus — sample menus priced per guest, each with its courses in tabs and its dishes listed one per line
- Venues — the kinds of place you cater at, each with what you bring
- Gallery, Journal, Questions and Contact, with a quote request form that asks for the date, guest numbers and venue
What to know
Services, menus, venues and articles are lists: add one and it gets its own page. A menu's dishes are plain lines of text — dish, dietary mark, what is in it — so adding a dish is adding a line. Quote requests land in your Sitelas inbox. The business, people, quotes, figures, menus and prices are samples to replace.

Key Highlights
Questions about Chafer
Can I show my menus with prices?
Yes. Each sample menu has its own page with up to four courses in tabs and a price per guest. A course's dishes are plain lines of text, so adding a dish is adding a line.
Where do quote requests go?
Into your Sitelas inbox. The form asks for the type of event, the date, the number of guests and the venue, so you can price from the first message. Dates are agreed by reply; there is no online ordering.
Who is Chafer for?
Chafer is for an event caterer — weddings, office lunches and launches, private parties and family gatherings — that cooks at the venue and quotes per guest. It suits a private chef who cooks dinners at home and a barbecue or grazing-table caterer too. A restaurant serving guests in its own dining room should pick Trivet, a café Latte, and a food truck with a short board Beacon. There is no online ordering, and dates are agreed by reply to a quote request.
What pages come with Chafer?
9 pages, already written and laid out: Home, About us, Catering services, Sample menus, Venues, Gallery, Journal, Questions and Contact. Add, rename or remove pages whenever you like.
Can Claude or ChatGPT build my site from Chafer?
Yes. Connect Sitelas to your AI agent and ask for a site that uses Chafer. It fills in your details, sends you a preview link, and publishes when you approve. The same chat can keep running the site afterwards.
Can I change Chafer without code?
Yes. The Instrument Serif and Montserrat type, all 9 pages and the service entries, every photo and every colour can be changed in the visual editor, or by asking your AI agent.
What does it cost?
Nothing to start, with no trial clock. A free site runs on a sitelas.com address; Pro is $9 a month per site ($90 a year) for your own domain, analytics and more room.
