Plan your Bali Chef Service Requirements...
The number of catering staff for your event greatly depends on the level of service you require at the event, how many guests are attending your event, and how you would like the event to be structured or the service to occur.
Some ideas of where you may want to add or independently hire additional service staff are:
Below you will find some recommended staffing guidelines to assist you in understanding how many staff are required in for food service events:
Chefs / Cooks / Assistants - Generally 1 chef can cook for 10 - 15 guest at 1 time. The chef will always require an assistant cook to help in preparations.
Wait Staff - Required numbers are based upon the kind of event service you are having. We can divide events into 4 types each with separate service levels and therefore wait staff requirement.
Canape / Platter Service - This service may be within either casual or formal settings often for cocktail parties or casual social events. Servers will monitor 2 primary locations; refilling of a central canape / platter table whilst also moving through out the event providing tray service.
For this service type we recommend 1 server to every 20 - 25 guest. If adding bar services ask us about combining food & drinks wait staff.
Buffet Service - This service is one of our most popular either a casual or formal setting within events and parties. Servers will maintain the buffet area and generally assisting guests. Service is usually self service though some items may be assisted by the service staff.
For this service type we recommend 1 server to every 25 - 30 guest. If adding bar services ask us about combining food & drinks wait staff.
Casual Sit Down Dinner of Function - This service is for a casual dinner where guest are served individual plated meals. The server will be required to bring the meals to the table. Please keep in mind the more guest to each server meals will come out with a delay between the first and last plate.
