Food Service

Just want to share with you types of food service management  I know that I'd usually encounter in my events:

1. AMERICAN SERVICE - Food is plated in the kitchen and then served to seated guests
2. BUFFET - Guests help themselves from large displays of food
3. BUTLERED SERVICE - Servers mingle, offering trays of hors d'oeuvres or drinks
4. FAMILY STYLE - Guests help themselves to large servings of food placed on the table
5. FOOD STATIONS - Different types of cuisines are divided into several themed locations (i.e. sushi, crepes, tapas) in a reception area; promotes mingling
6. FRENCH SERVICE - A waiter serves each guest individually from a tray held by another waiter; special equipment such as a gueridon (wheeled cart) and rechaud (heating unit) is sometimes used
7. RUSSIAN SERVICE - Similar to French service, but waiters hold trays of food in one hand and serve guests with the other

Well, for weddings, the most common would usually be American Service, Russian Service and Buffet Service.

Here in the Philippines, the most common would  be BUFFET SERVICE for the guests and RUSSIAN SERVICE for the Principal Sponsors/ VIP (this is also known as plated service or sit down).

So there, happy learning folks!
