ABOUT CATERING
Catering is a diverse field which deals mainly with the business of providing food services at a remote site.
Events range from box-lunch drop-off to full-service catering. Caterers and their staff are part of the food service industry.
When most people refer to a "caterer", they are referring to an event caterer who serves food with waiting staff at dining tables or sets up a self-serve buffet.
The food may be prepared on site, i.e., made completely at the event, or the caterer may choose to bring prepared food and put the finishing touches on once it arrives.
The event caterer staff are not responsible for preparing the food but often help set up the dining area. This service is typically provided at banquets, conventions, and weddings.
Any event where all who attend are provided with food and drinks or sometimes only hors d'oeuvres is often called a catered event.
You get many forms of how catering is done and to try and explain all this to you I am going to break it down into sections:
