Ensure anyone adding a food item to the potluck fills out a dietary restriction and allergy food card.
Give each food item a serving tool (including duplicate food items).
Open all containers (including duplicate food items), ensuring all food is able to be served immediately.
Portion larger items when they arrive (e.g. slice up bread, cut the cake).
The stove & oven are not available for use before or during Potluck.
Important: don’t rearrange appliances in the kitchen, and do not plug in any new appliances in the kitchen. Our kitchen’s power grid is very fragile, and gets overloaded if appliances are moved, or additional appliances are plugged in.
