Hi Zakiyya
I think with the amount of dietary requirements and the personalities of these devs :) a buffet is best.
They need good wholesome, filling food, but not 5-star hoity toity. We might even do a mix, as 10 days is a long time. We are trying to get the budget freed up to spend more on food though, so could you give me a 'cheapest but still good' and 'recommended' options please?
They would need refreshments (snacks, cool drinks, juices...), so please provide me with a quote, but we may decide to bring in other options here for variety (growing the community etc) - could you advise on options and your preferences here? As I mentioned we would need coffee and tea available all day if possible.
regards
Bernelle

Hi Bernelle,
For me to give you a quote, i need a few more details:
1. You mention sit down dinner and lunch, will that be served meals? If so please indicate what sort of menu we are considering (e.g. a lasagne or a 5 star dish)
2. Do you need refreshments during the day
3. I do know UCT quite well so we could negotiate about using their on site kitchen closer to the time if not we can use our kitchens as we are about 5 minutes drive from UCT. I will therefore not quote for delivery just yet.

Hi Zakiyya
That's excellent to hear!
Could you provide me with rough estimates for the following:
- coffee and tea available all day (not just in dedicated break times)
- sit down breakfasts (selection of savoury, e.g. cheeses, and other offerings)
- sit down lunches
- sit down dinners
per person, for 300 people.
2014 prices are sufficient at this stage.
Any other costs or requirements - delivery, VAT etc.
At this stage it looks like the conference may be held at the University of Cape Town, upper campus (engineering buildings).
best regards
Bernelle

Hi Bernelle,
Thank you for your email.
Indeed we would be most interested to assist wherever possible and we do have the necessary experience to do so.
I do not see anything listed below that we could not assist with as we have our own chefs that can cater for any dietary requirements and any amount of pax.
Please feel free to contact me if you require any further information.

Subject: Query: conference catering?
Hi
We are submitting a bid to host the annual, international Debian developers' conference in Cape Town in 2016. We are exploring interesting ways of getting the greater community involved, as we believe this platform can build capacity and enhance entrepreneurial skills on the African continent. Would your hotel school be interested in catering for us?
We would require sit down meals for around 300 people for ten days - breakfast, lunch and dinners, proposed dates are 10 - 20 August 2016. We would need about 20% vegetarian (perhaps more), as well as a few other dietary requirements.
If you cannot assist, is it perhaps possible to recommend other institutions/initiatives that could help?
best regards

More info:
Debian is a community of free software developers. DebConf is the Debian Project's developer conference. In addition to a full schedule of technical, social and policy talks, DebConf provides an opportunity for developers, contributors and other interested people to meet in person and work together more closely. It has taken place annually since 2000 in locations as varied as Canada, Finland and Mexico.
This is for the annual international Debian conference we're hoping to host in Cape Town in 2016.
(Debian is the precursor to Ubuntu and Linux and it's awesome).
