So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Get The Right Catering Consultant

By Mia Kent


When you are looking for any catering advice to improve further the performance of all your operations, you would need the support of any catering consultant. They could provide you with strategies or feasibility studies that could help you in your operations. They could even provide some support in getting a certain provider that has the adequate knowledge about the particular domain.

There are many companies that are innovative and can specialize in providing practical suggestions in creating some exciting and relevant food and beverage operations. There are others that will also offer their services in some universities, colleges, businesses and schools as well. They can always provide a contractor that can deliver a financially viable service.

In looking for any consultant, there would be several basic steps that could be followed. You could start by having a preliminary search that will aim to find the probable candidates who can be qualified to assess different problems. It would be better if you will get many candidates so that you can have a good choice.

You can always have referrals from your friends and colleagues. Approach the people that have similar situation as yours and know whether they were satisfied with their performances. Once you have their names, list them all and contact them one by one and schedule a meeting with them.

Discuss the overall project that you have with the finalists and then narrow down the list by getting about three of them. You may allow your top candidates to submit all their written proposals or their company brochures. Try to analyze every proposal thoroughly or ask different questions to determine those that are knowledgeable about the things that they have been doing.

By doing such, you may possibly pick an excellent candidate. Additionally, there are numerous methods for you to provide their payment. If you are hiring a person for your restaurant business, you may offer them a certain rate that can allow them to give great results even with the low rates. Still, you should not decide based on their fees.

There are some that would ask for a certain rate that is fixed. But, you could ask them to state in their own proposals the number of hours that they have estimated for them to finish the project together with the corresponding hourly rates. Yet, there are some firms that would charge flat rates for any operational analysis.

Generally, the other expenses that will be covered are often billed separately from their fees. This must be included in the proposal as well such as the costs for transportation, lodging and their daily meals. Be wise enough to check these things since this can greatly affect the entire expenses that you will be allocating for their services.

Remember that you would have to pay a catering consultant depending on the time that would be spent. With this, you must not waste their time or allow them to give the essential information that is required to complete the project. Yet, you should be wise as well so that you can use their time properly so that they could be productive enough and likewise, you would be greatly satisfied with all the results that they will be showing.
