Should there be a need for a menu substitution, you agree to such substitution, and you agree to pay any increased prices that result from the substitution.
Additionally, if the date of this Contract exceeds a 6-month period, the quoted rates are subject to a proportionate increase to meet increased costs of food, beverages, and other operational expenses existing at the time of the event.

Menu Tastings:
Scheduled tastings can be arranged with adequate advanced notice. Since menu items are made to order, we cannot provide drop-in tastings. A minimum of 2 weeks notice is required to schedule and should take place no later than 30 days prior to your event.
Since we do not keep premium and non-seasonal ingredients on hand for tastings, we charge a non-refundable fee of $30/person for all tastings and allow up to 4 people to attend. This also helps cover the cost of our chef and staff’s time to provide this service.
If you sign a catering contract with us, 100% of your tasting charges will be applied to the balance of your event (less gratuity).

There is a charge of $30.00 per hour for each Kenny King’s staff member for a minimum of 5 hours for all offsite events. Generally, five (5) hours of event service is common and included in the total. This time includes set up, clean up, and service time.
For large full-service events, an Event Manager maybe required which will be billed at a rate of $37.00 per hour. A charge of $50 per hour per Kenny King’s staff member will be charged if the event exceeds the agreed upon end time or if the meal is plated and served by staff.
Gratuity:
A tip/gratuity is not expected but is very appreciated! At your discretion, any tip/ or gratuity will be distributed directly to ALL service staff.
For all offsite events, a 18% gratuity will automatically be added to the total of the catering booking.

Your event will not be finalized until the deposit, signed contract and credit card authorization form is received.
60 days prior to your event, 50% of your remaining invoice balance is due. Unless previous credit arrangements have been approved, the final balance of the event total is to be paid at least 7 days prior to the event.
