Case study
A local charity is holding a fundraising dinner at your venue to raise funds for a medical research program. The charity is anticipating 120 guests. The guests are expected to be from different age ranges and cultures.
The dinner is to be served as a multi-course buffet. The charity organisers have given you the list of dishes that will be included in the buffet.
The list of dishes includes the following:
Roast leg of pork with sage and onion stuffing
Beef stroganoff
Vegetarian paella
Stir-fry vegetables

Chocolate mousse
Jus lié
Apple sauce
