Most companies hold one or two events during the year and
need to make use of catering services for these events. Since food and decor
play such an important role in the overall impression of
an event, it is important to select the right catering company.
Here are a few tips to help you select the best caterers
for the occasion.
Samples
Everyone promises to deliver exquisite food, but the proof
is in tasting. Enquire from the catering services whether they can provide samples of the food
they plan to serve. This will give you an indication of
their ability to deliver on their promise.
Range of food
You need a company that can provide a comprehensive menu
to suit your specific function. Enquire whether they are
able to draw up a menu for the particular event within the
set budget range.
You need to know whether the catering service will be able to provide tables, setting, linen,
chairs, flower arrangements, music and audio-visual equipment.
Make sure the caterers you select can offer more than just
food services, but are able to provide a wide range of services
at the venue of your choice.
State of the art facilities
The best way to determine whether the caterers
will be able to provide the level of catering services you require, is to visit the premises. If the
premises are neat and adhere to international standards
of safety and hygiene, you can have peace of mind that your
guests will not get food poisoning.
The final tip when selecting a company to take care of
the catering services for your corporate event of wedding reception
is to select one with a reputation for service excellence.
The Prue Leith Company offers a wide range of catering services, the highest standard of service excellence,
samples of the food, food for every occasion, and has a state
of the art kitchen that you can visit in Centurion to taste
samples.
