How to successfully receive a banquet?

The easiest and most important link in the process of catering is to ensure the quality of the banquet itself, which has a great relationship with the environment of the restaurant and the quality of the dishes. However, with the continuous improvement of guests' spiritual needs, in any case, careful preparation and planning has become a new prerequisite for the success of banquet reception. The planning of the banquet is based on rich imagination. A keen sense of touch and a rich imagination are necessary conditions for planning a successful feast. Organizing a feast that satisfies the organizers and attracts guests can bring higher profits and more business opportunities to the hotel. A good plan must revolve around a certain theme. This theme is not based on the preferences of restaurants, but must be in harmony with the temperament of customers or companies. For example, for a thank-you banquet of a tobacco company, the restaurant may choose a theme dining table in the shape of a cigarette case and decorate it with cigars in the main position, which may be better than the common flowers. At the banquet of the same mobile phone company, the theme surrounding the mobile phone will leave a deeper impression on the guests than the general theme. Many small decorations cost very little, but they can make the finishing point. For example, a banquet with the theme of "Jiangnan Spring" is decorated on the wall with fishing nets, shells are hung at will, and the dining table is replaced with a blue printed tablecloth. Instead of the usual fresh cut flowers, a Huishan clay figurine was put on, which made the guests applaud. A successful dinner party needs to be distinctive and beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Originality is very important This needs to work hard on the arrangement of banquet and cooking style. Attention must be paid to all the details. Communication before meals is very important, including: 1, checking the personnel and tasks of the banquet reception, and more importantly, whether you are clear about your tasks; 2. Rehearsal time, how everyone travels, how the travel path is more reasonable, and avoid more crossing with guests; 3, the preparation of materials, it should be emphasized that the same brand of drinks booked by the guests will not be enough because of the temporary increase of guests, which will disappoint the guests; 4. Predict problems and provide solutions for every receptionist, such as weather changes and other factors; 5, the work progress of the relevant coordination departments, often a link is not connected, it will restrict the preparation of all links; 6. The containers of dishes should be extraordinary and stick to the theme. You can't use the same container for all themes. All pre-meal planning needs to be further clarified before the banquet. This is also the usual practice, but many restaurants are faced with the problem of low effectiveness of pre-meal meetings. This has a lot to do with the form of the pre-dinner meeting. It is suggested to diversify before meals and give full play to the positive role of employees. For example, everyone can sing a fast-paced song together, high-five each other or shake hands in a circle to encourage, or the host can ask questions about banquet preparation for employees to answer. These are all effective methods. In short, in order to make the reception of the banquet more smooth, it is necessary to further improve the planning of the banquet and the pre-meal communication to ensure the success of the banquet.
