Catering Weekend 1


On Sunday I worked a catering event. I met everyone at the house in Shaker Heights about two hours before the party started so we could get everything ready. Most of the food was prepared ahead of time at the Diner, which is where all the catering is gone through. The pastrami and short rib sandwiches were assembled on spot along with the salad, but everything else just needed to be put in the oven for a few minutes so it would not be cold. In between the prep time and when the thirty guests would arrive we all stood around and talked until we had to start plating the appetizers that would be walked around. I stayed back to make sure that the appetizers would keep going out on time until we finished then off. Then we had to make sure the sandwiches and salmon were plated and brought into the main dining room before the guests made their way there. Overall, it was not as slow as Jacob’s party, we were never in a complete rush because there was only about thirty guests. I enjoyed working at this party and am excited to go to another one next Sunday.
