4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for the professional, January 22, 2000
By A Customer
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the place to start!, September 22, 2006
By kurv64 "kurv" (california) - See all my reviews
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.
