It is a good idea to have a food tasting before you choose the menu for your event.
Food Tastings not only allow you to try the food before your event but also provide you with the opportunity to spend time with your caterer. Use this opportunity to share your likes and dislikes as well as discussing other aspects of your wedding. Don't be afraid to ask questions. This is your time with your caterer.
Food presentation and service is often as important as the taste of the food itself. Take note of how the food is presented on the plate and ask questions. What will be the order and timing of the food service? How often will the buffet be refreshed? Tastings are not only an opportunity for you but are also an opportunity for the catering company to receive feedback from their clients. Be sure to provide your honest opinion on the taste and presentation of the food as well as any concerns.
Some caterers charge for tastings. If this is the case with your caterer make sure you understand the fees before you book a tasting so that you won't be shocked later.While the taste and presentation of the food is an extremely important factor, it is also important to ensure that you are happy with the other services the catering company provides. If you decide that you do not want to go with a particular catering company you can send a short note or email thanking them for their time and offering honest feedback. The caterer should appreciate your input.
Towns Delight offers free food tasting to select your menus.

Food Catering in Cavite
The caterer you choose for your wedding will have a huge impact on its success, not only in regards to the obvious food and service aspects, but also many other logistical concerns.
In large cases the caterer handles much of the set up and breakdown of your event. The food and service greatly affects how much your guests will enjoy your wedding. While many guests may not notice other facets of the event, everyone interacts with and forms an opinion on the food. Dining is something everyone takes part in, so it is noticeable if food isn't hot or wine and water glasses are not refilled, due to too few servers. Few things evoke memories like your sense of smell and taste, as demonstrated by Proust exalting Madeleine's in Remembrance of Things Past or the fictional food critic, Anton Ego being transported back to his childhood in the movie Ratatouille. A wonderful meal can become a cherished part of your wedding day memories.
Here are a few things to consider when choosing a caterer:
• Does your event site allow outside caterers?
• Do you have a certain type of food in mind? • Do you want a caterer to provide complete event planning or just the catering?
Once you know what you're looking for, browse caterer websites or ask for referrals from family, friends, or event professionals that you're working with. Good questions to ask a caterer include:
Generally, the more expensive the caterer, the more custom the experience.
Do you have an event manager for each event?
A salesperson may be charming but that won't matter if the kitchen staff isn't skilled.
• Do you offer tastings before booking, after booking, or not at all? It varies regionally, but many caterers now charge for tastings, which for a couple hundred dollars is a worthwhile investment.
• Will the chef at the tasting be at my event?
