外燴:由外間的專人到家架鍋包辦酒席

哥: 

柯林頓 2010 年嫁女兒時:

What's involved for Chelsea Clinton and her fiance, investment banker Marc Mezvinsky, in throwing the so-called wedding of the century?

According to estimates and reports, the $2 million to $5 million event on Saturday includes:
• $750,000 for catering, according to Brides magazine deputy editor Sally Kilbridge
• .....

catering
noun
1. the trade of a professional caterer
2. the food, etc, provided at a function by a caterer

caterer
noun
one whose business is to provide food, supplies, and sometimes service at social gatherings.

cater
verb (used without object)
to provide food, service, etc., as for a party or wedding

「外燴」這名詞,似乎已存在很久了,但字典及辭典至今都還沒有收錄,可見對它很難下定義。

在我想來,外燴不外就是由外間的專人到家架鍋包辦酒席而已。
