Essential Learning Components
• Understand different dietary needs
• Determine processes to work with vendors & participants on meeting needs
• Address challenges and obstacles presented circumstantially
Good food and beverage has become imperative to events, and being on the same page as your caterer in terms of food selection, cocktails, service style and sourcing is central to the overall success of your programs. But how do you get to that place? Discover 12 key F&B questions you should be asking your partners and discover what answers make most sense to you and your event during this highly interactive session.
Learner Outcomes
• Discover why communication with your caterer is central to the success of your events.
• Discover key questions to ask any caterer when you are planning a meal or food function.
• Understand the value of a well-planned meal to the overall satisfaction of your attendees.
Decisions, decisions, decisions. There are so many of them when it comes to ordering food and beverages for an event. From planners deciding the quantity, location, service type and food choices to caterers and hotels determining food orders, preparation and serving methods, staffing and safety needs, a plethora of decisions need to be made about the food served and eaten at meetings.
Who makes each decision, and how do those decisions impact other stakeholders in the event food “chain?” What about the attendees – the end consumers? What decisions do they have to make around food?
Designed to get you thinking about food from various perspectives and the decision that go into creating a delicious and healthy food function, these slides encourage you to put yourself in the place of your attendees, caterers, servers and clients, and to consider their point of view in all aspects of the F&B experience. Doing so will help avoid costly – or even deadly – mistakes.
Are you feeling the squeeze of increasing food costs on your event budget? From the bird flu to droughts, requests for organic to special dietary needs, managing your F&B can be challenging. What can you do to meet these challenges? In this session, we’ll discuss the myths and realities of whether locally sourced is more affordable or more expensive, how important is to know about dietary restrictions - whether a trend or allergy and provide options that are cost effective and customized and locally sourced. You’ll walk away with tips on how to conserve and control cost, successfully manage needs and reduce financial and legal risk.
The document discusses dietary restrictions and accommodations for food service at meetings and events. It provides statistics on various dietary restrictions and medical conditions. It also outlines best practices for communicating restrictions, contracting with vendors, registration processes that identify needs, and labeling foods appropriately. The goal is to safely and deliciously meet the needs of all attendees.
The document discusses an organization's duty of care and liability with regard to food, health risks, and disabilities at events. It outlines international trends in corporate liability laws and how to mitigate risks through food safety practices, disability inclusion, and emergency preparedness. Registration processes are highlighted as a way to gather dietary restriction details to accommodate all attendees.
Does the ever-increasing interest in healthier foods, constant budget parameters and the added difficulty of accommodating multiple dietary needs make you feel like you’re in the latest episode of “Hell’s Kitchen”? Join us as chefs, CSMs and meeting planners compete in a reality show-style cooking event/educational session. You’ll leave with a recipe for success to the dietary restrictions challenge.
Learning Objectives
• Understand the most common dietary needs and apply this knowledge to plan appropriate menus
• Examine how to work with F&B staff to accommodate special dietary needs
• Determine a process for identifying what attendees need and communicating available options with them
Meeting planners spend more than $54 billion a year on F&B at corporate meetings and events in the United States. And behind each egg croissant, turkey sandwich, and build your own pasta station is a simple decision that could help event participants feel better and safe and learn more and meeting planners feel not so overwhelmed with requests.
Catering menus aren’t designed to help planners make healthy or safe choices for their participants. With the array of special meal requests rising daily, figuring out what to serve event participants can be a challenging task for any planner.
All of that changes with Serve This, Not That!, an interactive session at CMP Conclave 2014, that puts menu selection under the spotlight, and arms certified meeting professionals with savvy tricks and better knowledge on how to feed their participants healthy, safe and deliciously, no matter where they are.
With the Serve This, Not That! session at the 2014 CMP Conclave, these CMPs will become event better experts by knowing how to handle every menu selection situation—plated breakfasts and hors d’oeuvre receptions to lunch buffets and afternoon breaks—and controling their meeting’s food universe because, unlike every other meeting professional, they will know the smart choices to make and questions to ask!
Learning Objectives:

With the array of special meal requests rising daily, figuring out what to serve event participants can be a challenging task for any planner.
This interactive session puts menu selection under the spotlight and arms meeting planners with savvy tricks and better knowledge on how to feed their participants healthy, safe and deliciously, no matter where they are.
Does the ever-increasing interest in healthier foods, constant budget parameters and the added difficulty of accommodating multiple dietary needs make you feel like you’re in your latest episode of “Hell’s Kitchen”?
In this interactive MPI TEC participants worked together to create an event that feeds the needs of many while responding to challenges that test their knowledge on how to meet dietary needs safely, efficiently and deliciously.
Participants will left with a “Recipe for Success” to the dietary restrictions challenge that didn't leave them feeling like they’ve been on “The Chopping Block.”
This document provides information about addressing dietary needs and restrictions for meetings and events. It discusses many different diets including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, paleo, kosher, halal, and more. Specific foods and ingredients are identified that either comply with or violate the rules of each diet. Potential substitutions are also suggested to help meet various dietary preferences. The goal is to educate about different dietary needs and how to plan catering and menus accordingly.
If there’s one thing we can count on when planning menus, it’s the tastes and trends of attendees are continually evolving. From demands for locally sourced and healthier vegetarian to special meals for food allergic attendees and vegans, gone are the days of planning a banquet menu that you only have to ask, “Chicken, fish or beef?” Gluten-free, allergy-friendly, macrobiotic and sustainable are all on the plate. But how do you meet the needs of all your guests while not breaking the bank?
The session will be one part lecture and one part educational game in which teams participate in a trivia game to test their knowledge and learnings.
Learning Objectives:
• Understand different dietary needs: food allergies, medical conditions, personal preference, religious practices
• The legalities behind meeting the needs
• How to meet these needs while managing costs
With the growing number of dietary needs being requested at events, it's about time we understood what they are and how to incorporate them into our menus. This fun, engaging trivia game gives meeting planners, caterers and hoteliers a fun and easy way to understand the needs and learn how to create a better customer experience through the food they are serving. Players/teams will compete to see who knows the most about food allergies and other dietary needs, table etiquette, sustainability, food safety, food culture, nutrition, cooking techniques and ingredients.
Creating a menu to feed a crowd of 50 to one of 5,000 is a daunting challenge under the best of circumstances. Attempting to do it while working with the standard banquet menu or catering for a range of demanding attendees makes it seem impossible.
But Thrive! is ready to take on the challenge and show you how it can be done. We’ll channel Bobby Flay, Julia Childs and Alice Waters and use a lot of muscle to rescue these desperate banquet menus from complete conundrum.
At MPI Northern California we reviewed the various dietary needs and then reviewed standard banquet menus to understand where the needs are "found" and how to ensure your offering alternatives to them.
Learning Objectives:
* How to review standard banquet menus to find the healthiest options
* Save money when ordering F&B
* Communicate better with their F&B partners in planning their events
* Offer healthy meals options for their attendees
* Provide safe meals for guests with food allergies or other special dietary needs
A Healthier Appetite for Meetings: Using Food to Engage & Energize Your Audi...Thrive! Meetings & Events
As meeting planners in the 21st century, we’re challenged with a lot more than basic logistics. Attention is being lavished on every last detail, including social media, ROI,
ROO, speaker and participant engagement and corporate social responsibility.
Who would have thought that meeting the dietary needs of your participants should be one of them as well? But it can! What if the food you served your participants helped improve the ROI and ROO for your organization and the attendees? What if swapping out those oversized Danishes for hard-boiled eggs or the candy bars with fresh fruit could help your attendees be better engaged and energized to participate in your event?
Food is a powerful force. It influences how we think, feel, learn and interact with theirs. It helps us feel and do. It provides focus and energy.
Applying the Latin quotation “A sound mind in a sound body” to your meetings harnesses the power that food has on our bodies and can create the possibility of “win-win” for your organization and participants.
Outcomes:
• Learn how to address dietary needs and serve healthier alternatives for everyone.
• Examine ways you can add value to your event through food and health.
• Understand how nutrition, including proper hydration, contributes to the participation and outlook of attendees.
• Plan menus offering food options that improve learning, memory and performance, and enhance mood to energize and uplift attendees
With the growing number of dietary needs being requested at events, it's about time we understood what they are and how to incorporate them into our menus. This fun, engaging trivia game gives meeting planners, caterers and hoteliers a fun and easy way to understand the needs and learn how to create a better customer experience through the food they are serving.
Dining at restaurants and events when you have celiac disease, a gluten-sensitivity or food allergies can be a challenge. But, by being pro-active and educating your hosts and those around you, the experience can be a better experience for everyone.
