Catering (during the day) #4

Closed jhilden closed 9 years ago

jhilden commented 11 years ago

We need somebody to take care of catering during the day. Probably Breakfast and Lunch on both Saturday & Sunday. Maybe also some snacks.

For past events we have gotten food from, e.b. http://www.habibi-koeln.de/

raucao commented 11 years ago

Nope, for the past RailsCamps we had sandwiches n stuff.

That was actually a great concept. We had food that was both breakfast and lunch, and that you could eat all day, effectively eliminating the need for a lunch break. And everybody could eat when they wanted, anytime. Let's do that again!

jhilden commented 11 years ago

Sounds good :+1:

(But Habibi is still very tasty and can also be eaten all day)

jhilden commented 11 years ago

Another option: http://www.mariecurry.de/ That way we wouldn't have to organize anything inside the venue.

raucao commented 11 years ago

Does someone know where the wraps and stuff came from on the last RailsCamp? /cc @bumi

moonglum commented 11 years ago

Sandwiches sound like a great idea, and also thumbs up for Habibi :wink: Any one with experience to plan food for so many people that spend the entire day (and for some the entire night)?

raucao commented 11 years ago

With cold finger food we only need enough of it and place tablets in one or 2 places. That's the beauty of it.

thilo commented 11 years ago

Any numbers for the costs?

jhilden commented 11 years ago

@tatjanala agreed to take care of this and hopefully should have some numbers for us soon

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

Hey everybody! I think at the last RailsCamp we had Wraps from KAILUA, I don't know if they still exist, but I can check it out. If we agree on sandwiches and stuff cafecafe could be a good choice too. They offer plates with panini, bagels or sandwiches as well as different salads and cakes/muffins etc. One plate with 24 bagels costs round about 65€ (sandwiches are cheaper). What do you say?

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

Habibi could be a option for lunch on Sunday as well?!

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

I`ll ask cafecafe for an offer. 200 people two days, right?

raucao commented 11 years ago

Yup.

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

Heyhey, here is the first offer (cafe cafe)

Vorschlag 1 (beispielsweise für Sonntag): 100 Bagels, halbiert (also 200 Hälften), pauschal 293,70 € 100 Ciabattine, halbiert (also 200 Hälften), pauschal 308,00 € 100 Sandwiches, geviertelt (also 400 Viertel), pauschal 360,00 € Summe: 961,709 €

What do you say? We're still waiting for two more offers...

moonglum commented 11 years ago

Sounds delicious :wink: I have no idea if this is enough / too much at all, but the prices seem to be ok IMHO.

raucao commented 11 years ago

Should probably be a bit more, because it's basically both breakfast and lunch. And how about some low-carb option? ;)

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

We thought about having fruits as low-carb option to all the sandwiches ;) And Denise suggested "Trifles" (Man braucht nur Becher und Löffel für drei Schichten knuspriges, cremiges und fruchtiges. Zum Beispiel zerbröselte Kekse oder Müsli plus Pudding und/oder Joghurt plus Obst - alles im Becher über einander schichten und genießen! Passt morgens, mittags, abends und zwischendurch!) I don't know if this is low-carb, not really, right? What else would you suggest?

thegcat commented 11 years ago

Fruits are only partially low-carb (depending on their fructose contents), see also http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/whattoeat/a/whatfruit.htm (for example, google yields some other lists too) (yeah, the page is a pita to look at :-( )

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

Do you guys have some other suggestions for low-carb snacks? I don't know much about low-carb food...

jhilden commented 11 years ago

@tatjanala your suggestions sound very good. we should just switch the days, because people might leave a little earlier on Sunday, so we won't need as much food there.

What else do you need to finalize this?

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

We are waiting for an other offer, but we`ll decide and order on Friday!

tatjanala commented 11 years ago

Hey, the other offer was way to expensive so we decided to order at cafecafe. We can wait for the order till next wednesday, so we know better how many people will come...
