silly question but what do I do first....

negotiate prices with the venue or try the food?

We negotiated price and then put a deposit pending the tasting. After the tasting we signed the contact. We put a deposit so they would hold the date.

I read a ton of reviews on all the venues I was interested in then went to look at them. I booked my venue and will do my tasting to figure out what dishes we will have!
