The author definately pinpoints and focuses on every aspect of catering. The book is really a resource book for a person in the industry or preparing to develop their own operation. The only concern is that for the price, the book looks as if it is copied. All pictures are in black & white.

This review is from: Catering to Every Whim: A Complete Guide to Catering Sales, Administration and Operations (Hardcover)

This is very old school, but has set the standards in the industry for the past 20+ years. We often forget our manners and get caught up in a technological world. Just step back in time for a few moments and refresh your business. This book is REALLY hard to find.
