Catering is a group of individuals who provide food, beverages, and servers to birthdays, weddings, celebratory soirees, and all that jazz.

A catering quotation is a document that caterers hand out to their customers. It contains a detailed billing of all the services rendered by the caterers—from the dishes served down to the servers and other culinary paraphernalia.

Parties can’t be without food. If a party has a party planner that ensures the order and the success of a celebration, culinary businesses have planners too, that leads the preparation of the entire menu, the expediting and serving. A quotation organizes the list of services the business offers and helps in managing the accounts and costs. It also informs and assures the hosts that the service have done their tasks.

Bruce Mattel and The Culinary Institute of America made a list of the top qualities a successful caterer must have and some of them are

• outstanding organizational and time management skills,
• must be friendly and hospitable,
• must be good in communicating,
• good multitasking ability and grace under pressure, and
• basic mathematical and accounting acumen.

Basically, what they are implying is that a caterer must see to it that it gives the best service, from customer relations like friendliness and hospitality to accounting skills. They also point out the importance of good communication skills since quotations come with letters addressed to the hosts. It would be mighty disrespectful of course if you, a caterer, only hand out the bills without acknowledging the client’s act of hiring your team in the first place.

One of the reasons why people hire caterers is that they want to save some time with the preparations. Catering, after all, is an early arrangement, which means the hosts call them some days or perhaps weeks before the event. Caterers should always up their game.
