Ideias essenciais para manter os expositores de alimentos de buffet limpos e esterilizados

4 Key Food and Beverage Catering Display Practices That Support Success 

Hotels, resorts, and convention centers rely on catering as a pillar of their service offerings. While hospitality businesses with catering options tend to earn their reputation on food quality, presentation, and level of service, cleanliness and food safety are just as important. 

These four buffet table food display ideas will help you keep catering environments clean and your business’s reputation pristine.

1. Use Linenless Food Display Tables and Easy-to-Clean Materials

Stone, wood, laminate, and metal looks are trending. Not only do these materials provide attractive options for linenless tables, but they are also easy to clean and disinfect. Using tables crafted from one of these trending materials lets you avoid the hassle of dealing with linens while providing a cleaner more contemporary look for sophisticated guests.

Esses materiais naturais podem ser transportados por toda a sua propriedade. Lindo mesas de bufê pode ser montado com travessas de alumínio martelado e bandejas de madeira. Combinar diferentes materiais naturais significa que você não precisa combinar todas as peças de mobiliário e ainda pode conseguir uma aparência coesa que permite que os alimentos brilhem.

If minimizing the spread of germs is paramount for an event, providing pre-packaged foods and beverages is the best option. This service method prevents the transfer of germs from guest to guest on serving spoon handles and chafers. 

Dica Adicional

Because of their ability to hold germs, linens are not the most sanitary option for dining rooms. Instead, purchase linenless tables that have a seamless tabletop. This will provide a surface that is easier to clean with nowhere for germs to hide.

2. Provide Safe Solutions

Além de usar mesas sem linho e opções de alimentos pré-embalados, certifique-se de que a apresentação dos alimentos demonstre seu compromisso com a segurança. Incluir escudos de proteção em bancadas para separar funcionários e convidados. Além disso, coloque-os estrategicamente nas mesas da área de jantar. Usando Partições entre mesas e estações de trabalho também é uma boa solução.

In times of high germ spread like during cold or flu season, think about how to provide room for social distancing. Providing tables with integrated power is one way to do this, and guests often appreciate the easy access to an outlet.

3. Provide a Local Experience

For years, tourists and travelers have craved local experiences. This was true among those traveling for both business and pleasure. This desire is no less true today. Loading up your food table displays with local options allows your guests to get a taste of the area. 

Properties can partner with nearby establishments to create unique offerings with a local flair. From beverage offerings to pastries, there are many options that will improve the guest experience while supporting local businesses.

4. Support Sustainability

Increasingly, customers are concerned with environmental issues, and they want to support businesses that are behaving with similar concern for the environment. For this reason, sustainability has been one of the most noticeable food & beverage trends in recent times.

Exemplos disso vão desde a promoção de opções vegetarianas e veganas até o uso de lâmpadas inteligentes e aquecimento inteligente para economizar energia. Também houve um aumento no uso de materiais mais sustentáveis para coisas como guardanapos e pratos.

Obviously, the uptick in prepacked foods is a challenge for sustainability. Having a robust recycling program complete with educational signage can counteract the impact. This can also be incorporated into your nature-focused display practices as discussed in tip number one.
