SOUND FAMILIAR?

The real problem is never actually named

The menu gets built without balance

Rich dishes stack on rich dishes without variety in texture or temperature.

Skill gets overestimated

Too many ambitious dishes get planned for one kitchen and one cook.

Drinks get an afterthought

Pairings and non-alcoholic options get skipped until the last minute.

Shopping happens without a real list

Quantities and prep timing get guessed at instead of mapped out ahead of time.
 
WHAT'S INSIDE

Inside the checklist

Know Your Gathering

Confirm guest count, dietary needs, and budget before planning the menu.

Build the Structure

Decide on courses, from starter through dessert, and how they'll be served.

Balance the Menu

Vary richness, texture, and temperature across the dishes you choose.

Match to Your Skill

Choose dishes you can execute well, favoring make-ahead recipes over last-minute cooking.

Plan Drinks & Pairings

Pair drinks to courses and prep them ahead of time.

Finalize & Shop

Write the full menu, build a shopping list, and confirm quantities for the crowd.
