As an event coordinator,
you will inevitably be asked to set up special lunch events. Of course, there
are many varieties of lunch events, and it will be up to you to select suitable
dishes, beverages, and services. With the rising popularity of Asian food, the Asian
caterers in London are in demand. Let us see what to be followed while
planning a lunch event in London.
Types of Lunch Events
Not all lunch events are
similar, and it will be up to you to make suggestions relevant to the occasion,
the venue, and the number of patrons being served. For example, a lunch
provisioned to a working group in a corporate setting will be quite different
from a formal meal served in an Asian wedding ceremony.
Here are a few excellent
varieties to consider:
A. What is the event? Is it a formal one,
such as a sit-down luncheon served after a lovely morning wedding or is a pure
corporate lunch after meeting?"
B. Will this be a seated or buffet event?
While most lunches are served in a buffet style, you'll need to discuss with your
caterer before making that assumption.
C. How many dishes are being served? If
you're helping hundreds (or only a dozen), you should consider proper foods,
service options, and the price points.
D. Where is the event taking place? In some
cases, catering occurs at a big venue where the staff and amenities are
event-ready. In other instances, lunches may be staged in private homes or
unusual settings like a museum gallery.
Popular Lunch Event Options
1. Deli
Buffets:
The deli buffet is quite
famous for a simple event and contains mostly finger food which is easy to
select and can usually please any crowd. Most deli buffets include the
following:
● Mixed green salad
● Fruit salad, antipasto and chips, potato
salad
● Three types of sandwich meats
● Dessert trays
2. Themed Ethnic Buffets:
Most Asian caterers
in London will offer multiple different themed lunch options like Gujarati,
Punjabi, Bengali etc.. These options allow the event planner to organise their
food selection into the overall theme of an event, especially the wedding. Be
sure to include a variety of appetizers, entree and dessert choices related to
any of these and other themes of the buffet.
Beverages:
Regardless of the kind of
meal selected, it's necessary to offer guests quality drinks to go along with
their food. With the upgraded popularity of flavoured waters, vitamin waters as
well as energy drinks, event planners should ask for specific brands and
flavours of drinking waters in addition to essential bottled water. Other
common options are:
● Assorted soft drinks
● Assorted bottled juices
● Bottled water
● Coffee, tea
