HOW DO CATERERS KNOW HOW MUCH FOOD TO COOK? šŸ¤”

We donā€™t just look at the number of guests and start pouring rice into a pot. šŸ˜‚

There is planning involved.

We consider the menu, expected portions, proteins, serving method and the type of event.

And hereā€™s something important:

Cooking too much is waste.
Cooking too little is embarrassment.

The goal is to find the balance.

Thatā€™s why catering is more than knowing how to cook.

You need to know how to PLAN.

Tomorrow, Iā€™ll break down a real example for 100 guests.

Save this series because weā€™re going practice.

Iā€™M ABOUT TO SAY SOMETHING THAT MAY MAKE SOME PEOPLE ANGRYā€¦ šŸ˜‚

Not every event needs 5 different rice dishes.

Sometimes, less is actually better.

Instead of having Jollof, fried rice, Chinese rice, coconut rice and white riceā€¦

Why not choose 1ā€“2 really good options?

More food does not automatically mean better catering.

QUALITY + GOOD PORTION + GOOD SERVICE = A BETTER EXPERIENCE.

Now tell me honestlyā€¦

At a Nigerian party, would you rather have:

A. 5 different dishes
or
B. 2ā€“3 excellent dishes?

Letā€™s see what Nigerians will choose. šŸ˜‚šŸ‘‡šŸ¾

SATURDAY IS NOT FOR COUNTING CALORIES. šŸ˜‚

Itā€™s for asking:

Whatā€™s for lunch?

Who is cooking?

Is there chicken?

And please, donā€™t forget the pepper.

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Be honestā€¦

Whatā€™s the first thing you look for when food arrives at a party?

The rice?
The protein?
The small chops?

šŸ½ļø LETā€™S SETTLE THIS CATERING QUESTION!

Good food can make an event memorableā€”but catering is not just about how delicious the food tastes.

Itā€™s also about portion sizes, presentation, timing, hygiene, variety and how well the food is served.

A caterer can cook amazing food, but if guests are left waiting or portions are too small, the experience can quickly change.

So, when choosing a caterer for your event, what matters most to you?

šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ Taste
šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ Quantity
šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ Presentation
šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ Good service
šŸ‘‰šŸ¾ Price

Which one would make you choose one caterer over another

FRIDAY CHECK-IN šŸ§”

If you are building a business, please remember:

People only see the result.

They donā€™t see the failed attempts.

They donā€™t see the early mornings.

They donā€™t see the days you questioned yourself.

They donā€™t see the money you reinvested.

They donā€™t see the times you wanted to give up.

Keep going.

One day, the thing youā€™re struggling to build will look ā€œovernightā€ to somebody watching from the outside.

LETā€™S TALK ABOUT PORTION CONTROL.

Have you ever attended an event where the first few tables got generous portionsā€¦

ā€¦and by the time they reached your table, the chicken had suddenly become ā€œsample sizeā€? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Thatā€™s why portion control is important when catering for large events.

Everyone should receive a reasonable portion.

Good catering is not just about having enough food. Itā€™s about distributing it properly.

This is one of the things we pay attention to at Homemealss

HEREā€™S SOMETHING PEOPLE DONā€™T REALISE ABOUT EVENT FOODā€¦

The number of guests is NOT the only thing that determines how much food you need.

You also have to consider:

ā€¢ The menu
ā€¢ Portion size
ā€¢ Number of proteins
ā€¢ Serving style
ā€¢ Children vs adults
ā€¢ Other food being served
ā€¢ Duration of the event

Thatā€™s why asking a caterer:

ā€œHow much will food for 100 people cost?ā€

without giving details is like asking:

ā€œHow much is a car?ā€ šŸ˜‚

When next you call a caterer for your event,donā€™t forget all the above details matters.

WHY DOES PARTY JOLLOF TASTE DIFFERENT?

Donā€™t tell me itā€™s because of the ā€œparty pot.ā€ šŸ˜‚

Thereā€™s actually a lot that goes into getting that smoky, rich party flavour.

The pepper blend, the stock, the seasoning, the cooking temperature, the type of pot and, most importantly, how the rice absorbs the sauce.

And yesā€¦

There are some little tricks caterers donā€™t usually tell you. šŸ¤­
