COOK - Focus on the what

Jan 2013 - I decided that we needed to first come up with a "What" and then we will figure out the "How".  We were over thinking this things and spinning in circles until we were dizzy.   So...WHAT have we been hired to do? Supply Food & Beverage for a corporate anniversary where the attendance could be as high as 9,200 guest. Supply Food & Beverage. Food & Beverage.....concentrate on the What!!! 

1. Food: We need food that will hold up hot over a long period of time, that is easy to produce, store and transport.

2. Beverage: Beer & Wine Bar with a Speciality Drink. Easy enough except for the speciality drink, they can be so complicated, I have never liked a pre mixed cocktail but I know that for this event to be successful that is what we have to do - twist and pour.

So we called up all of our vendors and the sampling begun........

No, No, No.....Brian WTF is this???.....No, Maybe, No, Maybe, No, No, No......BRIAN!?!?!...Maybe, Maybe, .......

We finally came up with a proposal we were comfortable with.  So we were once again off on a drive to Bloomington - ahhhh state road 37, what a beautiful drive......not.
