Ever had a friend ask, “I love BBQ, but is it even suitable for a baby shower?” And you just think, why not? At Shiok BBQ, we say if you’re not the one grilling, why not let our chefs bring the fire to your celebration? We recently planned a fully customized baby shower for 60 pax, and trust us—the result was nothing short of amazing.
Breaking the Stereotype

Traditionally, baby showers are seen as delicate affairs with dainty finger foods and light refreshments. But here’s a thought: why not spice it up a bit? Our live station BBQ brings a fresh twist to the celebration. Imagine a vibrant setup where professional chefs grill everything live, serving up sizzling meats and seafood right in front of your guests. The energy is contagious, and the flavors? Simply unforgettable.
The Perfect Balance

We all know our love for BBQ runs deep, especially when it comes to premium, in-house marinated meats and seafood. But a great event isn’t just about piling on the meats—balance is key. For our baby shower, we crafted a menu that was more than just all-out carnivorous delights. We incorporated a well-balanced selection:
- Meats & Seafood: Succulent grilled dishes that pack a punch of flavor.
- Cold Dishes: Refreshing sides like roasted potatoes and crisp salads to cut through the richness.
- Carbs: Hearty options that keep everyone satisfied without feeling too heavy.
This mix ensures that even if your guests are die-hard meat lovers, there’s always something light and refreshing on the table. It’s about pleasing every palate, making sure no one leaves hungry or overwhelmed.
Live Station Magic
What sets our approach apart is the live station experience. Unlike pre-cooked meals that might lose their charm by the time they reach the table, our chefs cook everything on-site. They arrive 1-2 hours in advance, prepping ingredients and firing up the grill. The aroma of freshly grilled food mingling with laughter and conversation creates an atmosphere that’s truly electric. Guests get to watch, chat, and even learn a few grilling secrets. It’s not just a meal—it’s a performance.
Our Experience: 60 Pax Celebration
For our recent baby shower, we kept it real. We planned a diverse menu tailored to a group of 60. The setup was simple yet stylish, complete with live cooking stations, eco-friendly plates, and sharing sets that encouraged interaction. Our guests were impressed by the mix of bold BBQ flavors and lighter, refreshing dishes that provided a perfect counterbalance.
The highlight? Seeing the smiles as each dish was prepared fresh before their eyes, from the perfectly seared meats to the delicate seafood that was grilled to perfection. And yes, even in a baby shower setting, the energy was high and the atmosphere warm. It was a celebration of new beginnings, with every sizzling bite reinforcing the idea that great food brings people together.
