How do? At work recently I was asked by one of the carers if I 'moonlighted' and did private functions. She has her daughter's first birthday/christening coming up and needs the catering done for roughly 60 people. She'd have done it herself but she wants to enjoy the day rather than be running aroung sorting food out.
I said I'd look into it and get back to her.
After our brief conversation I picked up she wants pretty simple stuff, not too expensive.
So far, in mind, I've got a load of sandwitches (3/4 big trays), a big bowl of salad, big bowl of pasta, a couple of large quiches (one veg/one with meat), a fair few pizettes, homemade sausage rolls, a couple of cheesecakes, tray of gingerbread people (decorated for the kids), vol-au-vents (meat & vegetarian) and a cheese board selection.
I'll need to have all of this prepared the day before/the morning of the party and transport it through to the party.
I need to buy the trays, serving utensils, bowls etc.
If anyone has any tips or suggestions that will help this run as smoothly as possible it'd be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
