There are some situations when a buffet may be more suitable than a served meal. 

If you wish to offer proteins or side choices a buffet could be your best option. You can decide on one or more entrees, such as chicken or beef to make sure the dietary preferences of most the guests are acknowledged. Guests are able to match their dinner choice to individual tastes and appetites. Buffets work well with standing receptions, casual weddings or “dinner by the bite” events. The food is presented as a tasting. It's secondary in scope to the other festivities. A buffet is a popular format for events like backyard parties, luncheons, and pre-game functions. Social events are the best match because there's less focus on the timeliness and consistency of service.

Buffets are far more cost-efficient than plated meals. This includes our chef stations. So, they could be your choice if you're dealing with a budget It's not necessary to pay multiple servers when you offer a buffet.
