TELUS Whistler Conference Centre Catering

COMMITTED

Whistler is a global Mecca for the finest alpine skiing and recreational activities - and as such hosts some of the most discerning diners. At TELUS Whistler Conference Centre we are committed to providing a level of quality that consistently impresses this savvy audience. We believe in high quality ingredients presented in a clean, modern style.

CREATIVE

As you go through this collection of menu suggestions and ideas, you will quickly see that we endeavor to stretch ourselves to achieve the ultimate in culinary creativity. Even though we cater to hundreds of guests at a time we proudly operate a “scratch kitchen” which means no shortcuts –everything is made in-house.

CAPABLE

Our Executive Chef and his team are proud to feature the very finest food and drink from British Columbia’s fields and waters – which not only provides our guests with the freshest experience – it’s also gentler on the environment. By spending our dollars locally, we benefit B.C.’s producers and limit the “food miles” required to produce an event.

CONFIDENT

To ensure that you have confidently made the right choice, TELUS Whistler Conference Centre invites larger groups to sample their menus at a “Chef’s Table”.

Food and Beverage Policies

Food and Beverage prices cannot be guaranteed more than 90 days prior to your event. All food and beverage prices are subject to 17% taxable Service Charge plus GST. All alcoholic beverages are subject to an additional 10% PST. Labour charges are subject to GST only.

A labour charge of $75.00 will apply to all meal functions with 20 guests or less. For any meal functions held on a Canadian Statutory Holiday, an additional labour charge of $3.00 per guest will apply.

A guaranteed attendance number is required for each function by 12 noon, three business days (72 hours) prior to event. No reductions are accepted to this guarantee after the 72-hour deadline. If no guaranteed number is received as required, the expected attendance will be used as the guarantee and charges will be applied accordingly. You will be charged for your actual attendance or your guaranteed attendance, whichever is greater.

At our discretion, we will prepare and set for 5% above the guaranteed number to a maximum of 30 meals. This overage will be forfeited, and a surcharge may apply, based on 15% of the original menu price, if the guaranteed number is increased after the 72-hour deadline. Normally this overage is comprised of alternative menu selections, such as vegetarian meals.

Any last-minute, new orders within the 72-hour deadline period are subject to a surcharge based on 15% of the original menu price. Any substantial changes in event start time or finish time, which impact our employee scheduling, may be subject to additional labour charges.

All food and beverages served in the TELUS Whistler Conference Centre must be provided only by our in-house food and beverage department.

The TELUS Whistler Conference Centre may re-assign an alternate function room pending substantial increases or decreases in expected attendance.

Due to the limited storage, packages arriving more than three days prior to the meeting should be discussed with your Conference Services Manager. A handling fee will be applied at $50.00 per hour to the client should Tourism Whistler staff be required to move shipped items to storage areas; pre-arranged with Conference Services.

Liability

The client is responsible for any extraordinary cleaning or damages to the premises by either their guests, agents or independent contractors. Charges will be applied at the sole discretion of the TELUS Whistler Conference Centre.

All prices are subject to 10% P.S.T. and 5% G.S.T. plus 17% gratuity.
