Hi Ellen Ty so much for your advice on your website it helped me a lot! I am catering for 200. There will be 3 stations Chinese, sliders , and Italian Each station has about 5 options. Here is what I am thinking Chinese - Sweet and sour chicken , pepper steak, oriental cole slaw, sesame pasta and Chinese rice Italian - Marsala chicken , meatballs, pesto pasta, ficiocha and pasta with basil and tomatos Sliders - a couple choices ... Do you have any ideas? With so many choices do I still use the amounts that you have on website for 100? Didn't see any amounts for pepper steak? We will also be having family style dessert I thought about doing a choice of different pies. Can you help me out with the amounts and what are your thoughts about price per person... I did look at ideas of prices from your website. Ty so much |

How the crowd will split at these stations depends on the type of crowd, the type of event and the age of the crowd. So I can't help much without a lot more info. Also, you will need at least 12-15 staff for the day of, for this size crowd for this menu. Also, I always request that pro (ie paid) caterers use the pro sites- chef2chef.com, cheftalk.com, foodservice.com. You are looking at a $4-6000 event. The usual fee for pro advice is about $50-80 per session. So, if you want to inquire at the contact email at the bottom of the page, we can talk. |

It's for a school fundraising dinner. Adults only and the 3 stations will be in a open area and the guest will walk around. Thanks for your help |

Are you open to tweaking the menu? I don't know what ficiocha is, but I do know that this is too many food choices for this size party, unless you have a staff of more that 20 and a very big budget. |
