CATERING

As our contracted vendor, CDS has the first right of refusal for catering on campus for groups of more than 10 people. Should CDS not be able to accommodate your event, then you must obtain this refusal in writing from the Manager and you may move forward with using an external vendor. Please e-mail Ann Jensen (ajensen@palomar.edu) if there are any questions about first right of refusal.

CATERING MENU: The catering menu can be found here. These are just some of the options available. CDS will do their best to accommodate your requested menu and budget for catering. If you do not find what you are looking for on the menu, please ask!

CATERING REQUEST STEPS:
1) Complete the Catering Request Form and send it to Catering@Palomar.edu. Provide as much information as possible to communicate exactly what your needs are.
2) CDS will provide a quote for the requested catering via e-mail.
3) Once a quote has been received, a requisition must be entered for the cost of the catering.
Note: Please contact your division office or division ADA should you need assistance with requisition entry.
4) Once the PO has been processed by Purchasing, please provide CDS with the PO number.
5) When the catering invoice is sent to the department by CDS, the PO number should be referenced and the invoice sent to Accounts Payable (ap@palomar.edu) for processing.
6) Accounts Payable sends a check to CDS.
