We have come upon a huge glitch in our India/US group's upcoming Diwali festival. At the meeting last night we discovered that, while we are having the event catered, we are not allowed to use an sort of heating devices to keep the food warm at the arena (a large school gym) we are having the shindig at!!

This is supposed to be a very fancy event that people are buying tickets for and the last thing we want is to serve people cold food.

And the worst part of all this is that I am the head of the food committee for the event!

Good luck!  Hopefully, it can all get straightened out!

Why don't they want you to use heating devices? Makes no sense. Do they want all the food to be cold when served?

One word....Chiropractor

I think you found a good one and if I lived closer I would give your person a try.  Our experience with a chiropractor was not a positive one.
I've been to 4 different chiropractors. All good experiences.

No time to chat, but saw this and had to share it.


Thanks for sharing. I hope 20 somethings will get the joke

LOL.   We recently played this for a 30 year old who didn't find it as funny as we do.

About 15 years ago or so, I performed in an annual benefit for the local hospital and my friend Chip and I actually learned and performed the whole "Who's On First" routine.  We were quite the hit (pun intended)! :D

DR Jennifer the school probably has rules set out by their insurances.  It seems though they could offer use of the kitchen.  The big shame it this regulation wasn't stated clearly when the room was rented.

Good idea DR JohnG. I may just call a few catering places and see if that has ever happened to them.

You know, even if they've never worked there, ask the other caterers how they would handle such a situation. They might have some inventive suggestions.
