FEEDING THE MASSES
Use the
in-house talent.
What cuisine is the chef at the venue best
known for? Whether appealing appetizers,
exceptional entrées, or decadent desserts,
hedge your bets and serve the house
specialties whenever possible.
Cater outside the box.
Think beyond a buffet table lined with heated
serving trays. Consider the latest culinary
trends, and how you can use them to create
a true dining experience for your guests.
