Great news from the caterer!!!!

[Sunny Sunshine]

So, we had found THE perfect caterer when it was to be in Greenville. When the reception site was sold, we didn't think they'd travel further away to Keene. I just spoke with them, and they will!!!! Woo hoo!!!

This is the menu we're thinking of picking:
The Shish Kebab--$18.95

--Choice of 3 of the following--

Tequila Lime Swordfish
House or Burgundy Black Pepper Sirloin Steak
Chicken--Vidalia or Lemon Pepper
Sausage--Kielbasas or Country Style
Greek Styled Lamb


Chef Suggested Sides:

Tossed Garden Salad or Greek Salad
Pine Nut Pilaf
Fresh Baked Dinner Rolls
Strawberry Shortcake

We'll go with the Steak, Chicken and Lamb (Lamb is Trav's favorite!) And for sides, we'll do the Pilaf and Salad.

I'm so excited! We're meeting with them on Sunday! :dance:

Oh and, it fits our budget!!! We figure about 120 people will show up, so that puts us at $2274!! :dance:

Just chiming in due to my experience. I would steer clear of the sirloin steak at your price point. Even at far greater price points, like $75 a head, most caterers use fairly crappy quality beef. Crappy quality beef can be made decent if it's marinated properly and cooked to order, but for a large function like yours, plan on it being on the dry/chewy side.

I spent almost fifteen years wringing every dime I could out of people working in this business, so I know all the dirty tricks :lol:

we went to a wedding this summer that had really yucky beef. i got the chicken and that still wasn't very good. actually none of it was good. :funny1:
