January 12, 2024HERE ARE OUR TOP 10 TIPS FOR SURVIVING THE BUSY HOLIDAY SEASON. . .
1
Start early. Think Martha Stewart like and be ahead of the game when it comes to pre-planning to allow for lead times and taking advantage of special pricing. Ask us about our Warehouse Sale – on now!
2
Make sure all appliances, ovens and hoods are clean and in perfect working order to avoid last minute service calls.
3
For holiday parties, one or two coffee and water stations might have been enough last year, but this year you’ll need more. Check your inventory of coffee pots (including decaf), urns, carafes, mugs, and sugar, cream and milk servers.
4
Spend some time checking your inventory now for items like china, glassware, utensils and linens.
5
Planning for buffets? Do you have food warmers and rethermalizers? These handy tools can take some pressure off your kitchen staff as food is placed in frozen and safely comes to serving temperature in one pot.
6
Cleaning supplies like mops, cleaners and hand sanitizers may not be fun, but are oh so necessary.
7
Don’t forget the cleaning carts. Having everything in one place will make your cleaning staff quick and efficient.
8
Consider a unique signature cocktail to wow the crowds out of the gate.
9
Does the bar staff have everything they need to keep those cocktails coming? Think about Sure Shot pourers, shakers, ice tubs and lots of specific glassware to keep the bartenders creative.
10
Check your ice machine to ensure it’s in tip top shape. Clear, hard ice cubes are critical to a well-made cocktail.
