Actually, you would be surprised to see how many tables a well trained and
efficient server can handle, particularly at a banquet (as opposed to an ala
carte event). My servers at the hotel would regularly run 35 to 40 people on
their own, including bussing and beverage service (non-alcoholic only...we
had cocktail waitresses for the booze. Different budget, different labor
pool...) A well organized and attentive staff is a blessing in this
business, as I'm sure it was in the Middle Ages...
