Introduction to this guide
1.1 Introduction
Welcome to this guide.
This guide uses Competency Based Training to teach workplace skills. It is based on
competency standard that is a nationally agreed statement of the skills, attitude and
knowledge needed for a particular task. The major emphasis is on what an individual can do
as a result of training. One of the most important characteristics of Competency Based
Training is its focus on training individuals for actual jobs in the workplace.
This will help you teach the competency Plan and prepare food for Buffets.
This guide deals with the skills and knowledge required to plan and prepare foods for buffet
situations. This unit equates to the old Australian unit THHBCC10A Plan prepare and present
food for buffets.
Care should be taken in developing training to meet the requirements of this unit. For general
and prevocational training, organisations providing training must take into consideration the
full range of industry contexts, with no basis towards individual sectors. The range of
variables will assist in this regard. For sector-specific delivery, training should be tailored to
meet the needs of that sector.
A delivery strategy has been provided for the teachers and trainers. The suggested content
gives an indication of what needs to be covered in the program to meet the competency
standard.
The delivery strategy used and assessment provided in this unit are not compulsory and
should be used as a guide. Teachers and trainers are encouraged to utilise their own
industry knowledge, experience, local examples and products to adapt the materials or
develop their own resources, in order to ensure the relevance of the training.

Section 2
Help for the trainer or
teacher
2.1 The role of the trainer or teacher
One of your roles as a trainer or teacher is to ensure high standards of service through
effective training. To ensure that you are ready to start working on this competency with
trainees or students, consider the following questions:
How confident do you feel about your own knowledge and skills required to deliver each
element?
Is there any new information or laws that you may need to access before you start training?
Do you feel confident about demonstrating the practical tasks?
Will you be able to clearly explain the underpinning knowledge that your trainee or student will
need to do the job properly?
Are you aware of the scope of industry situations in which the competency may apply?
Are you aware of the language, literacy and numeracy skills your trainees or students need to
demonstrate competency in this standard?
Have you consider access and equity issues in planning the delivery of this training program?
Trainers or teachers should select training strategies that are appropriate for the competency
being taught, the situation and the needs of the learners. For example, if practising on-the-job
is not possible, varied simulations and role-plays may be appropriate.

Section 3
The competency
standard
3.1 Use of the competency standard
In a training situation the competency standard assists the trainer or teacher to:
identify what trainees or students have to do
identify what trainees or students have already done
check trainees’ or students’ progress
ensure that all elements and performance criteria in training and assessing are
covered.

In planning the buffet, there are many factors must be taken into account to
fully meet the requirements of enterprise and/or customers.
The chef will need to plan in detail for designing, purchasing, preparing and
displaying the buffet to ensure that all is successful according to the
enterprise’s and/or customer’s needs.
a. Food cost;
In the operations of a buffet, someone has to worry about budgets, cost
accounting, and profits.
b. Price;
It is essential to be able to estimate one’s costs in order to make proper
charges to the customer for food and services and to ensure effective
margins are being met.
c. Covers;
The number of cover for a buffet could be for a small gathering or could be
for thousands.
d. Occasion/theme;
Birthday/wedding parties, cultural themes, festival celebrations, special
event styles (Christmas, New Year).
e. Range of foods;
The styles and types of food served on a buffet are as variable as the
imagination and ability of the kitchen staffs.
f. Quality;
The appropriate quantities of foods are prepared and ready for services
and re-filled as required, and it takes considerable experience and
forecasting to establish the quantity of each item, so as not disappointed
the guests.
g. Serving dishes;
Food items on a buffet could be served in an individual platter, bowl, tray,
or mirror, with accurate size, type, and colour are chosen to ensure a good
presentation.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 13
OHT 3
Centrepieces
Each individual platter, bowl, or tray should take its starting point
for its position in the overall buffet layout.
When you arrange a serving dish for buffet presentation, you must
always think of how it will be viewed by the guest and how it will
look in relation to its neighbours and to the buffet as a whole.
Centrepieces are the most important things that the cooks have
and should do in arranging and preparing each food items in a
buffet.
The most attractive centrepieces are often those that are edible
either completely or in part.

Cooking methods
Hot food are best placed at the end of the buffet, so that they will
not cool off on the guest’s plates before they are seated, and so
that the decorated of cold foods can steal the show.

salad greens;
Salad greens are, however, the base of most salads. They can
serve as both the under liner and the body. Salad greens contribute
body and bulk to a salad, as well as variety in colour, texture, and
flavour. The greens should be trimmed, washed, and chilled before
using to ensure that they are well-drained, cold, and crisp at service.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 17
HO 4b
In platter design, you meet the basics of height, unity, and simplicity.
On a platter, height may be something that is physically higher than the
rest of the platter or it may be implied height. The function of height is
to give focus. You can supply height in several ways. You can use an
un-portioned piece of a food as a background to arrange portions of the
same food, such as a piece of a whole ham on a platter of sliced ham.
Or you can use a bowl of cold sauce or a simple garnish such as
parsley, or a cluster of small garnishes of a strong contrasting colour –
black olives, for example. Whatever it is, it should provide the focal point
of your design.
Cold cuts platter may consists of all kind of meat, poultry, game, fish,
and shellfish, which are the basic ingredients in preparing and
producing foods for a buffet.
All foods designed for public display before service should be coated
with aspic-jelly. This prevents drying out and discoloration and restores
the natural sheen.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 18
HO 5a
Sauces
The sauce should be the crowning touch for the dish it
accompanies. It sometimes seems that there are as many sauces
as there are menu items, and a wide variety of sauces is put to
good use in the garde-manger.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 19
HO 5b
Garnishes
Many a salad is brought to life by an appropriate garnish used as
an accent, a colour contrast, or a focal point. On the other hand,
there is no need to garnish a salad that is already colourful and
well designed. An ingredient of the salad itself can often take over
the function of a garnish by its position, shape, and colour, and
there is then no point to adding a further garnish.
Keep in mind that a garnish should play the role of an accent and
should not steal the show.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 20
HO 6
Not only the nature of the dishes on the menu but also the sizes of
the portions must be established as part of the menu writing.
Fixed and appropriate portion sizes are important for many
reasons.
Portion sizes are important to plate layout. One more asparagus
spear on the plate or a little more shrimp on a little less rice may
make all the difference.
For purchasing and production, specific portion sizes are
absolutely essential. They determine amounts of foods to be
purchased and produced. The kitchen would be chaos without
them.
Established portion sizes also make it possible to figure costs
accurately and set suitable prices of individual dishes and the
menu as a whole. Changing portion size is also one way of
adjusting a cost or price ratio that is off balance, thought it is not
the best way. Finally, established portion sizes provide the basis
for portion control.
There are no absolute rules for portion sizes for every food and every menu. But there are some
guidelines for quantities that represent general acceptability, as shown below:

Section 5
Assessment
5.1 Workplace assessment issues
5.1.2 Competent
Ask yourself the question, “what does an employee really need to be able to do?” The
answer to this question will tell you what we mean by the word “competent”. To be competent
in a work related skill implies that the person is able to:
perform at an acceptable level of skill
organise the required tasks
respond and react appropriately when things go wrong
fulfil a role in the scheme of things at work
transfer skills and knowledge to new situations.
When you assess this competency you must take into account all of the above issues to
reflect the real nature of work.
5.1.4 Assessors
In workplace situations, an industry certified assessor would determine whether a worker was
competent to undertake the tasks entailed by this unit of competency. If you are certified to
assess this unit, then you may choose from the methods offered in this guide, or develop your
own to conduct assessment. Assessors must look at the evidence guides in the competency
standards before arriving at the assessment methods to use.
Evidence should include a demonstrated ability to correctly explain and apply principles and
practices in the hospitality industry.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 31
You must now assess your trainees or students’ underpinning skills and knowledge. This
section must be completed before you go on to the next section. Underpinning skills and
knowledge for competency standard are:
a. principles of nutrition, in particular the effects of cooking on the nutritional value of food
b. culinary and technical terms commonly used in the enterprise
c. recognition of quality
d. principles and practices of hygiene, particular with the issues surrounding buffet service in
Indonesia
e. logical and time efficient work flow
f. evidence of commodity knowledge of ingredients is required
g. cooking skills.
Should your trainees or students not have the underpinning skills and knowledge required,
you must ensure that you deliver this material before you progress to the next section.
Use these tasks to determine if your trainees have the necessary underpinning skills and
knowledge. The table below can be used to record the result of each student and what further
training is needed.
Results of a successful
assessment should indicate
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 32
sufficient and relevant
knowledge and understanding to
be able to infer competence.
Therefore the trainee is assessed
as either competent /
competence to be achieved.
Examples of assessment results
sheets are included in Appendix
1 and 2.
Package for Hospitality Training – Plan and prepare food for buffets 33
Evidence gathering methods
Assessment of practical demonstration in the workplace may include observation of the trainee:
performing mise-en-place requirements for setting up a buffet table.
Oral question or some form of written assessment/project would be useful to determine underpinning knowledge such as:
type of food preparation equipment
principles and practices of hygiene requirements
menu knowledge and cooking skills.
In-off-the job assessment, simulated activities could be used to allow the trainee to provide evidence of skills through practical
demonstration:
simulation of setting up a buffet table.
1. In preparation for further use, you are required to describe on or more factors in preparing a buffet table.
2. There are many considerations when a buffet is presented. Explain and describe the considerations factor to
perform the requirement by the establishment.
3. A buffet should have centrepieces. You are required to mention the materials used for centrepieces (edible
or non-edible).
