I just recently autocratted an event where the feast was the center piece of
the event, in other words the courses were spread out through the day. There
was a course served at Noon, a course at 3pm, and a course at 6pm. Then all
the in between time was filled with various  performing arts and other
activities. It went over quite well.

About two hours.   There are better ways of handling a poorly-equipped 
kitchen.
