: : I am looking for websites dedicated to catering/banquet recipes for groups of 50 or more people
: As part of the upgrade for this site I've been considering putting a database of recipes up, but I feel that a base multiple of 10 scales better and has a wider user base (without being a Martha type resource)
: IMHO having the base for the recipies be 50 is just too big, unless ALL parties/dinners is in the 500-1500 person range.
: At the Waldorf we did lots of parties (2 a day) for 800-1500, but had to do the same entrees for 20 to 30 and 200 to 300 as well.
: Any feed back welcome...

: BTW- I realize the the download for this forum is rediculously long, my first priority is getting it to an archive, so the download is under 50K.

Having large quantity recipes at 10 servings is not much bigger then most recipes out of cook books or magazines. A range of say 10 to 50 or 100 servings may work better. Some yields in my recipes aren’t in servings they are in gallons (as in dressings) or a certain number of sheet pans (as in cakes).
And George, if there is anything I can do to help (punch out HTML or Script) I would be willing to try, I’m not sure of the particulars so maybe it would be more hassle to you than help but my offer is there
