Banquet is a large
catering activity where
food & beverage are
served for pre-
arranged number of
peoples on pre-fixed
date & time, agreed
menu & price.
A banquet is a large meal
or feast, complete with
main courses and
desserts, always served
with alcoholic beverages,
such as wine or beer.
A banquet usually serves
a purpose such as a
charitable gathering, a
ceremony, or a
celebration, and is often
preceded or followed by
speeches in honor of
someone.
The idea of banqueting is
quite ancient. In the 16th
century, a banquet was
very different from our
modern perception and
stems from the medieval
'ceremony of the void'.
After dinner, the guests
would stand and drink
sweet wine and spices
while the table was
cleared, or ‘voided
During the 16th century,
guests would no longer
stand in the great chamber
whilst the table was
cleared and the room
prepared for
entertainment, but would
retire to the parlor or
banqueting room.
As the idea of banqueting
developed, it could take
place at any time during the
day and have much more in
common with the later
practice of taking tea.
Banqueting rooms varied
greatly from house to house,
but were generally on an
intimate scale, either in a
garden room or inside such
as the small banqueting
turrets in Longleaf House
Today, banquets serve many
purposes from training
sessions, to formal business
dinners. Business banquets
are a popular way to
strengthen bonds between
businessmen and their
partners. It is common that a
banquet is organized at the
end of an academic
conference. A luau is one
variety of banquet originally
used in Hawaii.
In this type of function,
certain procedures, such as
seating the host, chief guest,
guest of honor, and the
invitees, serving the food
and beverages are decided
by the host.
Functions hosted by the
head of the country or state,
military, formal wedding
breakfasts are some of the
examples of formal
functions.
In an informal function, no
formalities and procedures
are followed on seating,
serving, and the dress
codes. The service is
indiscriminate of sex and
rank.
These functions normally
include entertainment.
The purpose of this type of
function is to meet people,
make new friends,
entertain oneself, and For
example, cocktail parties,
wedding anniversaries,
birthday parties, wedding
dine and dance parties,
etc.
These are organized by
the business houses in
order to make the
consumers aware of their
presence and to establish
relationship with them.
 Exhibitions, contests for
home makers, fashion
parades, dealer's meetings
etc. are some of the
examples.
The purpose of this type of
function is to share the
knowledge and expertise
and to discuss on matters
of concern.
Political conferences,
trade union conferences,
international and national
conferences on important
issues etc. are some of the
examples.
The Design and decor of
function rooms, like the food
and beverages that are
served in them, can take
many forms. A simple coffee
break can be served in an
undecorated theme less
room, while elaborated
reception, meeting or
reception has complex
layout and decorations to fit
the theme.
 Space available inside the
banquet hall.
 Size of the audience ie (minimum
guaranteed pax and maximum).
 Expected level of activity and
interaction required.
 Place required for dinner tables,
meeting tables and head tables.
 Details of equipment's required
eg projectors, screen, lecterns,
Flip chart, board, dance floor,
stage etc.
 The type of service. Eg: Sit down
full service, Buffet etc.
Additionally the guests at
banquets and catered
events must be served
quickly, the layout and
service stations should be
setup to allow for
maximum staff efficiency.
