Looking For Utah Catering Companies

By Cynthia Lewis


Many company owners and individuals will sometimes decide to host a function to entertain their guests. Providing food for a large number of people involves a lot of work and hiring professionals to do the work is a good option. If you are searching for Utah catering companies there are some important things to consider and some care is needed.

When you are trying to find a firm to provide food and drinks for your special event there are a few important things to consider when in the initial planning stages. Firstly you should decide out how many guests are going to be there, and what type of refreshments you want to give them. There are many catering firms in Salt Lake City, UT and they will be more than happy to help you organize the food for your event.

There are many options offered by the caterers depending on your requirements and a little care is needed when you are choosing the menu. Many types of food can be provided by these firms ranging from simple self service buffets to sit down banquets. Trained waiters, chefs and bar tenders are also provided to ensure your guests get the best service.

After deciding on the number of people that will be attending and working out your budget you will need to contact a company. Caterers can be found in the local telephone directory or you can browse the net. After you have contacted them they will come and visit you to discuss the event and begin organizing the food.

During your initial meeting with a catering planner they will ask you what you require and explain everything to you. It is worth bearing in mind that some of your guests may have special dietary requirements and you will need a food option for them. Most firms will require a deposit to secure their services and this will be taken off the final bill.

The prices you are charged by caterers will depend on how many guests are eating and what type of food is provided. A self service buffet menu will be reasonably cheap and prices will be much higher if a gourmet banquet is provided. Most companies will have fixed price, set menu option, and these can be cost effective.

Many caterers will also provide a drinks bar service which is a useful addition for an event. The company will come and set up a functional drinks bar which is stocked with soft drinks as well as alcohol. These bar services can be paid for up front or they can charge your guests on the day for each drink they buy.

An important thing to consider is what equipment is needed for your function. When you plan to put on a buffet, the companies will usually prepare this in advance, and bring it along on the day. If a hot menu is provided they may need to bring their own equipment if you do not have the facilities to cook at the venue. The caterers will also be able to supply all of the plates, cutlery and glassware that may be required.
