When to do a tasting.

When to do a tasting.

This is probably a silly question but I really have no clue. When do you do a tasting? Is it done after you book your hall so you know what things to include in the CH and on the menu? Or is it done before you book any halls, to help you decide which hall to choose?

Re: When to do a tasting.

Id request one before hand. If the food stinks Id wanna know before I book it. I had one before I booked JT and CLM.

Re: When to do a tasting.

we did ours before booking...this helped us to decide!!!

Re: When to do a tasting.

You can do either, it depends on the hall.

Some halls, like Sandcastle, don't do food tastings.

We went to a couple of food tastings before hand. A lot of the halls do it before so they can sell you on the food.

Because FH is in Iraq we are going to do another food tasting so he can experience it, in September

But just call the places you are interested in first, see what they say.

PS, Chateau La Mer does food tastings before you even think of booking, I definitley reccomend them, yummy yummy!

I didn't taste before I booked, but i've been to their showcases where they put out a wonderful spread of their popular stations for cocktail hour.

Re: When to do a tasting.

i did my tasting before we booked, helped us decide and it was me,my FH and my parents and they gave us a whole bunch of food

Re: When to do a tasting.

I would definitely do a tasting before you book. We went to a tasting at Thatched Cottage and found that it wasn't what we were looking for. We also tasted with East Wind before booking as well.

Re: When to do a tasting.

You should do it before, but some caterers don't offer tasting. SandCastle doesn't but their food is amazing, I have been there alot and it's always great!!

Re: When to do a tasting.

some places require u to book first....but will refund your deposit if your not satisfied.
