Q: How many servings will I get if doing a buffet of 2 entrees?

It depends on your final head count. We always serve 9% over your final head count. Example - 150 guests, serving 2 entree, (82) servings of chicken and (82) servings of pork. Keep in mind that your head table and reserved tables of close family will go first, then if you run out of chicken first your remaining guests will get pork. On your invites you'll list what you're serving buffet style and not give your guests an option to pick. If you'd like your guests to pick an option then it will need to be plated and your final counts come back at your two week marker we'll make what they've picked and bring it to their assigned tables. For more details our event planner will go over this with you at your consultation.
