Leicestershire / A PLACE TO START
Choose a starting style. Add the date, guests and details on the next screen before sending.
Leicestershire / BEFORE YOU ASK
Leicester and Leicestershire include the landscapes of Charnwood, the market-town setting of Harborough and the food heritage associated with Melton. Those local differences are useful prompts when deciding how formal, portable or leisurely your meal should be.
Tell suppliers whether the event is in Leicester, around Loughborough, near Melton or in another locality. Use the same area description on each request, then confirm the private venue details with the caterer you choose.
A Melton-inspired spread can be a starting idea rather than an assumed package. Ask what the supplier actually makes or sources, how portions are served and whether the proposed ingredients suit the needs of your guests.
If a group visits countryside or an attraction before eating, set a realistic return and handwashing window. Discuss whether a ready-laid buffet, individually served food or a later seated meal would make the afternoon easier to manage.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
