Gail Sawyer has just started a new catering business in Dallas, Texas. Instead of establishing a fixed menu, she has decided to make whatever the customer wants until she knows how well different dishes will be received. Gail has been invited to bid on the rehearsal dinner for the wedding of the mayors son. If she wins the bid and gets the job, some of the most prominent people in Dallas will taste her food. She cant get better advertising than that! The mayor has decided on a menu of peanut soup, baby field greens salad with fresh mozzarella, grilled salmon, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, baby asparagus with hollandaise sauce, and white chocolate creme brule. Gail estimates that the selected menu will require $30 of food per person. She has been quoting prices based on a 70% markup on food cost.
