Five dishes, with the notes. The delice is gone. A tasting converts once.
Sample workspace. Not a real client.One tap per dish. Convert copies everything but Skip onto the wedding's proposal; Loved and Needs change carry the note.
What’s inside
  • Tasting event auto-inherits the parent wedding's contact + venue
  • Per-item feedback: loved / good / needs change / skip
  • 'Loved' items become 'client favorite' notes on the proposal
  • 'Skip' items drop cleanly, never appear on the proposal
  • Run multiple tastings per event, each one appends to the parent
01

One button, not one copy-paste

Before: you taste, take notes on paper, then later rebuild the menu in the real proposal, hoping you remembered everything. Now: feedback lives on the tasting event. Click Convert to proposal. The liked items appear on the wedding with their notes intact.

02

Link stays alive

The tasting stays tied to the parent wedding forever. If the client asks 'what did we decide at the tasting?' you open the tasting event and every feedback mark is still there.

03

Maître runs the flow conversationally

'Book a tasting for the Smith wedding next Tuesday at 6pm with the salmon and caesar.' 'The client loved the salmon.' 'Convert the Smith tasting to the proposal.' Three sentences, zero forms.

Maître woven through

From 'next Tuesday at 6' to a proposal

Tastings are a natural fit for chat. You're usually on your phone when the client asks to schedule one, and you're standing at a prep table when you mark feedback. Let Maître handle both.

“Book a tasting for the Smith Wedding next Tuesday at 6pm with the salmon, caesar, and tiramisu”

MaîtreMaître creates a Tasting event linked to the Smith Wedding, pre-populated with those 3 items.

“The client loved the salmon but wants to skip the caesar”

MaîtreMaître updates the per-item feedback. 'Loved' on salmon, 'Skip' on caesar.

“Convert the Smith tasting to a proposal”

MaîtreMaître copies the non-skip items to the parent wedding, adds 'client favorite' notes on loved items, bumps the wedding to proposal status.

Need something this page doesn’t mention?

We build custom features for individual customers starting at $10/month. If your idea is broadly useful to other catering operators, we may waive the monthly fee entirely and add it to the standard catalog. The first conversation is free and we’ll tell you which path applies.

How it works

Pairs well with

Pipeline (CRM)

Leads, customers, prospects, all in one CRM. Filter by tag, send to the list, write merge letters that pull in their event details.

Events lifecycle

From inquiry to invoice to load-out. Every event lives in one place: proposal, BEO, financials, seating, schedule, debrief.

Packages: one price, cooked as several things

Sell the Harvest Dinner at $95 a head. The client sees one line and what it includes. The kitchen sees every dish, scaled to the headcount. The tax is right on both.
