OUR SERVICES We appreciate the opportunity to work with you to plan a successful event. The menus in this guide represent our traditional offerings, but our skilled staff and chefs will also create custom menus and environments for your special occasions.

STYLES OF SERVICE ❚ KU Catering offers a range of services from our Catering Express Menu (JOF) delivery to your office to formal dining: from very economical to highly distinctive. ❚ We are the exclusive caterers on the KU Campus and will work with you to make your event a success.

FORMAL SERVICE Formal service receptions and meals are served with china, glassware, linen and table skirting. Fully customized events with special menus can be arranged with our Catering Coordinator. With advance notice, special linen colors and sizes are available (additional charges may apply).

CASUAL SERVICE Casual service orders are delivered right to your meeting room and are served with disposable ware and tablecloths. Our friendly staff will come to your location and set up the catering order. They will also be onsite during the event. ❚ Refreshment Service: morning coffee break or afternoon pick me up-let our team help with that. (cold foods/snack foods only) ❚ Eat and Meet: we will set up the buffet or appetizer station at your office or event. We will come back at the end to clean up. (for events less than 20) CATERING EXPRESS MENU “JUST ONE FRILL“ For the times when all you need is the food, this menu offers soups, salads, hot entreés and any extras you might want. All prices are à la carte so you can customize your order to fit the event. No attendants will remain with the meal and we won´t be back to pick-up or clean-up. The only frill is the great food! Menu is available on-line: http://union.ku.edu/ku-catering GUARANTEED NUMBER OF GUESTS To ensure appropriate service preparation, we require the final guaranteed number of guests by 12:00 (noon) three business days prior to your event. You will be charged for this number of guests unless you exceed the guaranteed number at which point you will be charged for the actual number served. Increases in the number of guests within 72 hours of the event will be subject to an additional 50% of meal price per added person. We will prepare for a 5% overage up to a maximum of 20 places. If we do not receive your final guarantee, we will use the last estimate on record. If the Monday prior to the event is an observed holiday, guarantees for Thursday events will be due by noon on the Friday prior.

Our chefs are trained to properly prepare specialized meals to ensure your guest’s safety while providing an attractive and nutritious meal.

We will be pleased to accommodate guests with restricted dietary requirements provided that we have at least three days’ notice prior to event. A $5.00 charge will be added to each of these meals.

Please be aware that during normal kitchen operations involving shared cooking and preparation areas, including common fryer oil, the possibility exists for food items to come in contact with other food products. Due to these circumstances, we are unable to guarantee that any menu entrée can be completely free of allergens.

THE TASTING ROOM KU Dining Services runs KU Catering operation with PEP, or Personalized Event Planning.

Every event that is planned with our staff will have its own unique set of circumstances and needs, as no two events are quite the same. Within this Catering Guide, we have several menu suggestions. We’d like to emphasize the word “suggestions.” Our phenomenal Executive Sous Chefs, Tommy Gunter and Robert Cashman, take pride in their ability to customize your menu.

We all have different tastes when it comes to food and we are sure Chefs Tommy and Rob can accommodate your menu desires. Ask the Catering Coordinator and Sales Manager about tastings.

Our goal is to take the worry out of the event planning. We have a gregarious staff prepared to help you in all aspects of your event planning. I too am available to assist you in any way possible.

Best wishes,
