A restaurant dinner with a clear course rhythm Pale plates carry a mushroom and roasted-carrot main course on a restrained restaurant table, with a separate service sideboard behind it. What I want to borrow: Choose individual plating when you want a defined meal sequence and the venue already supplies the kitchen, furniture and service team. Adaptation to discuss: A two-course menu can leave room for cake without adding a second full dessert. Confirm the actual menu and dietary equivalents with the restaurant. Questions for our supplier: • Is the dining room private, shared or exclusive for a set time? • How are meal choices matched to guests at the table? • What happens if speeches take longer than planned? Scope to confirm: Room access, service hours, courses, drinks, dietary meals and cake service. Responsible people: Restaurant service lead agrees course cues with the person introducing speeches. Before confirming: Obtain a written timing window, minimum-spend basis and list of included equipment. Working example (replace with actuals): Write “starter cleared → speech → main course” as separate cues; agree who releases each cue.
