How it Works
With our basic buffet style service, 2-3 of our staff work your event. They generally arrive 1.5-2 hours
before the meal time to set up equipment and prepare for service. During the meal our staff will
man the buffet line, answering any questions guests have about the food and replenishing menu items as
necessary. We provide everything necessary for the buffet. This includes tables for the buffet line,
tablecloths, steam tables to keep the food warm during service, a grill, holding cabinets, a small tent,
extension cords, etc. We also provide paper plates, flatware, wetnaps, toothpicks, napkins, sauces, and
pickles.
It is sometimes possible to set up the buffet line so that people can serve themselves on both
sides at the same time. This is helpful for larger events, as it helps the buffet line move more quickly. If you
would like a 2-sided buffet line, please let us know prior to the event.
After everyone has served themselves once, we generally keep everything out for around 20 minutes before packing
up leftovers. We will not stop food service until it seems as though everyone who may want more has had an opportunity
to get some. Once food service is over, we pack any fully prepared leftovers into half sized disposable steam table
tins and leave them for you. Our staff packs up our equipment and cleans up the food prep area before leaving. If you
have decided to add servers, they will bus tables until the end of the meal.
Family Style Service
With our family style service, we put together trays of food with some of each menu item on them and bring these directly
to the tables at the time of the meal. We provide 1-2 trays per table depending on table size. We bring trays, serving utensils,
and disposable paper containers to portion the food on the trays. This requires 2-4 servers depending on the size of the event.
