Sell the Harvest Dinner at $95 a head. The client sees one line and what it includes. The kitchen sees every dish, scaled to the headcount. The tax is right on both.
$95.00 per guest · taxed · service charge applies
Open a package in the catalogue and add what is in it: three canapes a head, the plated main, half a bottle of wine a guest, one cake. The builder adds the parts up, shows the price you set beside them, and tells you the saving the client sees and the food cost you carry. Change a dish's cost and the package's margin moves with it.
On the event the package is a single priced line, 120 guests at $95, with 'Includes' underneath on the proposal, the invoice and the portal. Behind it every component is on the event at no charge and off the invoice, so the prep sheet counts 120 mains, the beverage totals see 60 bottles, and the pack list loads the platters. Firm the headcount up to 130 and the per-guest components follow. The cake stays one cake.
Ask what packages you offer and Maître lists them with what is inside. Ask for one on an event and it writes exactly what the Packages button writes: the priced line, the hidden components, the guest count applied.
“What packages do we offer?”

“Put the Harvest Dinner package on the Alvarez wedding”
