The five most important things to look for in a caterer.

Okay Everyone,

Here is my opinion on the five most important things to look for in a caterer.

5. Select a caterer that is willing to meet with you in person, have a face to face conversation, is very thorough and doesn't mind giving you a little extra attention.

4. Competitive pricing. Not overly expensive, but not trying to undercut the competition just for the job. My advice, pick the middle quote and use your instinct.

3. Certificates and training. You should ask to see if the caterer and their staff are safe food handling certified, and red sealed (certificate of chef training).

2. Make sure the caterer has been in business for a while, I would suggest at least two years.

1. The Most Important.
That the caterer is understanding and willing to work with you about your needs and concerns. They should be helpful, not get irritated about minor changes near or at the last minute.
