A tasting is a controlled environment. Your wedding day probably isn’t.
During a tasting, we’re serving a small group directly from our kitchen. On your wedding day, there may be hundreds of guests, a full culinary team plating each course, and a kitchen set up in the middle of a field under a tent.
Two very different environments. The same standard for the food we’re serving.
In this Reel, David Alan shares what the culinary team pays attention to during the tasting process and how those same standards carry through to the event itself.
From preparation to plating, the goal is to create consistency in an environment that can look very different from one event to the next. We can’t control everything. But we can control the controllables — and set the standard for excellence along the way.
