Buffet style reception
Ben 09/13/14	I am handling a reception for 175 and need to make sides and chicken. They are having a pig roast as the main protein. I'm looking to do salad, rolls, rigatoni, baked beans and green beans. They also wanted prices for cheese, meat and veggie platters for the cocktail hr before the reception.
ellen 09/16/14	pig roast salad, use plan for 100 table, do 1 3/4 times the amount for 100 rolls, 20 pounds, 4-5 pounds butter rigatoni, 18 pounds pasta baked beans, 5-6 gallons green beans, 35 pounds 1 piece of chicken per person- a quarter is 2 pieces They also wanted prices- I don't do prices, here are amounts cheese, 1 pound per 10 meat, 1 pound per 12 crackers, 11-12 pounds veggie platters for the cocktail hr - 1 pound per 10, 1 cup dip per 6 Strongly encourage fruit tray, better choice than veggie, this is a heavy meal and not a lot of color! If this is a paid gig or saves you time, trouble, or money, please make a donation, maybe a dime or quarter per guest, to support this site. Thanks.
