Catering: menus, service formats and venue preparation
Choose a food format, prepare a quote request and agree the menu, services and venue details. Fulfilment, prices and terms are confirmed for your specific event.
These general checklists apply to Alanya. Delivery terms and availability must be confirmed for your request.
Start with the event programme and venue conditions. Then choose the food format and service method separately: delivery, setup or staffed service. A buffet, coffee break and banquet serve different needs. Availability of your particular arrangement is checked after an enquiry.
For an initial enquiry, provide the city, event type, date and local time, guest count, preferred format and contact details. If you have a budget, state its currency and whether it is per person or for the whole event. The exact address and technical details can follow later.
Review each quote line: food and drinks, delivery, staff, tableware and cutlery, furniture, equipment, setup and cleanup. A menu does not imply that the other services are included. Additional hours and confirmed charges should also be listed separately.
With delivery, prepared dishes are handed to the recipient; later tasks depend on the agreed scope. Setup, serving, replenishment and cleanup require separate confirmation. Choose service according to the programme and venue facilities.
For the first enquiry, describe the venue type and whether it is indoors or outdoors. Then agree unloading access, floor and lift, the food area, equipment and working times. Technical requirements depend on the menu and service method and must be confirmed by the supplier.
Provide the expected adults and children, event format and food preferences. Agree dish quantities, portions, substitutions and special options with the supplier. The final guest count and its confirmation deadline are set for the particular order.
