Thoughts on logging this challenge

I work on the inn side of an upscale inn and restaurant. We are preparing to re-open our restaurant after months of renovations, etc. With the re-opening comes a new menu, and, today, staff gets to taste everything. My dilemma is logging today. Short of asking chef for the recipe and weighing everything I eat (and we're talking bites of things, not entire course), I'm not sure how best to go about this. Obviously, I can find the closest thing possible on MFP and go from there, but I wanted to see if anyone had some other stellar ideas.

    How many things do you have to sample? It might help to go by bites. I don't know what the food will look like, but this might help. Adjust the calories if needed.

    1 bite of salad - 5 cals
    1 bite of meat based dish - 15 cals
    1 bite of carb based dish - 20 cals
    1 bite of dessert -50 cals
