What size serving per person for...?!


Question: red or gold potatoes in garlic, butter and chives? i'm guessing about a large serving spoon per person

(for a wedding reception serving 100 ppl)

how many pounds should be prepared to serve 100 ppl?

i'm thinking 50-75 lbs

If this is a plated event, assume about 4-6 ounces per person. Also make sure that you have someone serving this that you can trust to keep the serving sizes the same every time.

You should be able to get by with 40 lbs; but if you feel better, then go with 50, unless the spuds are the main course. Remember, you are feeding them not fattening them. :)

iI would go with 75 lbs that should cover it .

75 pounds

use a measured scoop and go with half a cup per person. 75 pounds of potatoes.

suggest the potatoes be cut to this size and boiled then seasoned with the goodies, one potato serving per person.

50 pounds of potatoes would be enough for a generous serving for person. I'd say it depends on what else will be served. Potatoes are inexpensive and filling.
