To: Mark Tollison Fran: Lesley Groff Sent: Sat 9/14/2013 5:22:41 PM Subject: Re: Dining Event Structure Excellent! thank you Mark...will pass along. On Sep 14, 2013, at 12:14 PM, Mark Tollison Messages received Lesley, Thank you so very much. I look forward to meeting everyone Monday at a designated time. My cell phone, Please pass on to JE: is with me for JE's call. rote: 1. that the Rich, you and Sue have provided excellent assistance in getting me here and making sure I am comfortable. 2. that I am moved into 10B, which is very nice. 3. that Sue gave me the tour of the house yesterday and I will be the point of contact for the florist she was asked to engage while she is away to ensure all floral arrangments are what (in number and the quality) JE will want. 4. that regarding the dining engagements I have ascertained: -you will provide with who the guests will be for the dining events upcoming as they are confirmed up to the date; -Valdson will decide the menus, resource the required food and drink, and prepare the meals.- someone will need to make tertian we are aware of any invited guest's food or drink allergies and non-meat preferences, etc. -if asked , Sue and Jena, and possible Jena and Maria can serve the guests. 5. My greatest concern, which is quite easy to remedy if we have the trained staff we need, is providing the welcome and actual service in all areas JE will want for his guests. To provide the understated. elegant, seemless service JE will want for his guests we will want to consider having: EFTA_R1_00769377 EFTA02128577 - at least one person (another person to take any coats if the weather requires should be at that point as well) with a good image and smile to warmly greet all guests at the door and direct them to a second person positioned at the bottom of the stair to accompany them to the living room upstairs. - a third person should be positioned in the living room area to take and serve any drinks (and appetizers if desired), to make it seemless the appetizers and drink should be up there. - when dinner is ready, the person greeting should announce dinner is served and if desired for a great effect, each guest should be invited down individually to the dining room door, then met at the dining room entrance and acompanied to an assigned seat by a server until everyone is at table. - when all guests are seated , all servers together in unison should serve via American style ( all food on plate) and remove all courses as directed by a table captain positioned in the room at the door leading to the kitchen if JE will allow someone in the dining room. If not, then the captain will have to be positioned, as will the person assigned to keeping drinks full (refreshement sommelier), out of sight in the kitchen available by JE's buzzer. - at the end of all dinner courses, two persons should be available to accompany all guests to the front door with a gift such as a high end dessert chocolate or whatever JE would like and provide them with any coats etc - all servers should at a minimum be in black slacks, white dress shirts/blouses, and bow ties, and black shoes; black vests are the norm too for this level of service, regardless of the meal being casual or a formal dinner party - greeters, coat persons, table captains, and refreshment sommeliers should be in black suits white shirts, and formal dress ties if men, or black formal type dress and shoes if women-one of each is a good balance. - if we provide car valet, same dress as male greeters.
