Debbie catered our wedding in San Luis Obispo in March 2017. Lets just say, people are still coming up to me to tell me how much they loved the food at our wedding! My husband and I love good food and are spoiled in San Francisco, where we live. What drew us to Debbie was her homemade food (everything is from scratch), use of high quality, fresh, local ingredients, and years of catering experience and expertise. She is well-connected in the industry, but not pretentious at all. Rather, she is a gem to work with.
Our wedding included a cocktail reception with passed appetizers followed by a formal sit-down dinner. We worked with Debbie to draft a menu that reflected seasonal California cuisine. For the passed appetizers, we had her coconut encrusted shrimp with red pepper sauce, lamb lollipops, and the most beautiful cheese station with dried fruits, nuts, crackers, draped on its own table in the center of the cocktail reception. These apps were to die for.
For dinner, we started with a local greens salad with mixed berries, candied cayenne pecans, and pomegranate vinaigrette; this salad was unreal! The entree choices were macadamia encrusted halibut or filet mignon with a Brandy Peppercorn sauce; for the Vegetarians, we offered a Spring vegetable and cheese lasagna. All entrees were served with some sort of garlic potatoes, as well as a vegetable stir-fry with fresh basil. Everything was delicious. I appreciated how the portions were generous, the food presentation was spot-on, and the plates came out hot, despite it being a chilly night! Debbie's servers were professional and went above and beyond to make sure each person got what they ordered, as well as continued to fill up wine and water glasses throughout the evening.
We could not have asked for a better experience with a vendor for our wedding. My husband and I are looking forward to attending our friend's wedding in May because we know Debbie will be catering that too!
