Implies that tastings are *not pre-req to hiring: "Some caterers offer a tasting that allows clients to sample dishes on their menu. "A tasting lets us adjust foods, change a sauce, or refine a recipe," says Peggy Dark of the Kitchen for Exploring Foods in Pasadena, California."

"Can the caterer arrange for a tasting of the specific foods you're interested in prior to hiring? (They should.) Schedule a tasting if you get a good vibe."
