Hi Everyone

I have a client that is asking for the names of the vendors I deal with because I am doing another kosher dinner party and she states her guests may be concerned about where I get the kosher meat from.

This sounds a bit strange to me since I do not keep kosher but would you divulge this information to the client? I feel a little uneasy about it because I'm not sure if she is really asking for the above reason or trying to figure out the cost of these items versus the price I am qouting her for the meal. She has offered on 2 different occassions to pick up the kosher meats and have me deduct this from my costs. I politely explained this catering outfit does not operate in such a manner but thanked her for the generous offer

Anyway, as always, any advise would be greatly appreciated.
