Hello Richie,
I am an American with a catering business in Medellin,Colombia and have the same supply problems. I was very complicated when I first arrived in Colombia but found how to relax, deal with the supply problems and go for it . Be creative with what you locally have and buy some different condiments. First you must make a list of what you can get and work the menus around your supplies.
I have offered the following menus with easy to find items:
Thai food (chicken)
dumplings al vapor
spedini (made from veal)
quiches
crab cakes
timbales
Mexican
In regard to your brochure,be general in your menus. Your objective should be in offering a service of creative menus and excellent presentation. Do not promise what you cannot give,but do not be afraid to experiment with the supplies you have in Panama.

Regards,
Boobi
