Increasingly busy lifestyles have changed the landscape of dinner time. Family celebrations which were once a clustered in a large dining room are now commemorated at our favorite restaurants. We spend time with our friends, conduct business, date, and sometimes even meet our spouses there. (I have friends who were married in the restaurant where they met.) The foodservice industry is more than an industry. It’s part of our daily existence
Is it any wonder, then, that as we plan our special events, and start to consider catering, we look at the options available, and say to ourselves, “What I REALLY want is…†You’re a part of our lives. We think of you when we’re coordinating these things. This is opportunity knocking. We want your Crab Rangoons served at our next event.
If you have a solid customer base, you have a catering business ready to launch. All you need now are Chafers . You may have never considered them for your restaurant, or if you have a buffet, they might be in use now. Chafers were created for gently cooking delicate foods which can’t tolerate fierce heat. Because they’re simple to use, and offer an upscale appeal, chafers have branched out, and are used to bring fare as diverse as classic Coquilles St. Jacques, or comfort foods like cheese burger and mashed potato bars, to wedding receptions. Drying out your foods is substantially less common than with the heat lamps you’re using now. Heated by the steam of the water pan beneath, they keep your foods moist and fresh. Catering events introduce your business to new customers, as your diners have friends and family who haven’t discovered you. You’ll have both the added business of the events themselves, and the secondary business generated by the revelation of your menu at these events. Invest in a few Chafers, let us know you’re ready to be a part of our dining lives on a deepening level, and we’ll share you, and our favorite foods, with those who mean the most to us.
