Library Journal

Especially clear and well organized, this book offers much good advice and many helpful strategies to the beginning caterer. The business, artistic, and social aspects of catering are explored using detailed and instructive examples; important issues and problems of the profession are discussed in an intelligent, knowledgeable way. Chapters on pricing and marketing, insurance, taxes, and kitchen organization are quite valuable. There are some recipes, too. Well worth the money.
