Vive Le Difference This Xmas!
Recall your most recent Xmas parties? That may be a stupid question, you were most likely so intoxicated that you couldn’t remember what day of the week it was. Allow me to rephrase the question. Was it memorable? For many of you I presume the resounding answer would be no. Whether you celebrated with your colleagues in the office and ended up photocopying all means of unmentionable body parts, or simply passed out as you drank to numb the boredom in a faceless rented hotel meeting suite, your last Christmas do was probably one to forget.
Maybe you feel as though you deserve more? 2010 has been a really tough year with concerns about the recession and possible redundancy, UK workers should really be getting on their employers backs to pull out all the stops this festive season. A great way to make your Noel-based knees-up go off with a bang is to let an outside catering firm take the burden of preparing the food and organizing the venue.
Imagine restaurant standard food served however you want. Whether you require a formal sit down meal, a finger buffet or even something more extravagant like a hog roast, this new breed of private catering companies can pander to your every whim. Food is not usually top of the agenda for most Christmas party goers but most outside caterers now put as much effort into their array of exciting beers, wines and cocktails as they do their grub.
Many caterers now even offer themed parties.Your imagination is the only limiting factor! Want a Christmas do with a super-hero dress code accompanied with a Spanish tapas style buffet? Eugene from accounts may not be too happy about it, but outside caterers can make it happen. Make sure you have a break from the monotomous standard xmas fare get your company’s HR department to look into outside catering. Yule be glad you did!
