This review is from: How to Manage a Successful Catering Business, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
This book is the original catering management book. It's not a cook book nor is it full of recipes - it explains the process of catering events that are spectactular, but still profitable. It contains information needed for corect etiquette,ceremonies and serving. Table settings, quantity calculations and costing techniques are all covered in this all inclusive text. A pefect guide for the person interested in the catering business.
