FAQ  
 
When is the best time to schedule Holiday Parties?
Holiday Parties begin scheduling 3 months prior to the season.

Am I required to pay a deposit to "Save the Date" for special occasions?
Yes, deposits are required for parties over 75. This is to guarantee the date, prevent over booking and to ensure quality service for your special occassion.

When is my final headcount due?
Minimum guaranteed attendance must be received no later than 72 hours before your scheduled event. If attendance falls below the guaranteed number the client will be charged for the guaranteed number. The guaranteed number must be received by the date and time indicated.

I have people with special diets. Can they be catered for?
Yes, as long as the information regarding their dietary needs is given with ample notice, our chefs can accomodate all dietary needs.

If my numbers drop on the day of the event can I get a refund on the catering not required?
No. All catering will be charged as final numbers which are confirmed 3 days prior to your event.

Should I consider seasonality of fruits and vegetables to ensure freshness and cost savings? 
Yes, fruits and vegetables are best if purchased in season and locally.  The global marketplace does allow us the opportunity to order from around the globe, but an increase cost is associated with this luxury.
