    The food is "good enough" for me to give it another shot, so I'll update this review next time I…read moreeat there. There's room for improvement. 1. Mac n Cheese: B+. Pretty decent, good flavor. I only know this because I tried my friend's. I ordered some, but I got mac salad in my order. I think the mac n cheese would do a little better with a creamier cheese sauce. Good chefs hate it, but the fact is that Velveeta makes a creamy basic sauce that can be doctored without limits to greatness for the application. 2. Mac salad: B+. It's pretty basic mac salad, no surprises. The pasta was a little al dente, though. I suspect that the dressing was perfect when they made it, but over a few hours the al dente noodles soaked up whatever moisture they could, leaving a dried out dressing. The remedy for this is to re-mix the batch with a little water, or buttermilk for extra points. 3. Potato salad: B+. This is a good, basic potato salad. No surprises. 4. Creamy slaw: A+. GREAT! SLAW! This is almost like my slaw, and I'm picky about my slaw. 5. Regular slaw: A. Bright and fresh flavored slaw. This slaw screams "put me on a killer California Reuben!". 6. BBQ beans: D. Insanely good sauce. Beans heavily undercooked. Insanely good sauce. Fix these, and I will eat them by the half-gallon. 7. Brisket: A. Solid brisket, great smoke, perfect cook. 8. Spare ribs: A. Good and smokey, falling off the bone (but the cartilage hangs on, which makes them perfect in my book). 9. Pork roast: A. I'm not sure what cut was used here, but it's a great cut for this purpose. Moist and flavorful and very smokey. 10. Pulled chicken: A++. Next to what the beans *could be* and what the creamy slaw is, this chicken is an absolute all-star. Whew! Wicked smokey, super moist, pure heaven. I could eat piles of this chicken! 11. "Kicker" sauce: sweet and delicious BBQ sauce. I have a feeling, after the beans and this sauce, that sauces are this place's strong suit. Truly great stuff. Summary: this place has some easily fixable problems. Easily fixable. Mere adjustments, and I can't wait to try them out again and bump this up to 5 stars.

    Really want to give this more like a 3.7 but it's hard to give a real honest review on food trucks…read more Looking at the few other pictures posted here I can tell that some days are a little better than others, probably not by too much but still. Seems like these guys are usually parked in the parking lot of Froggs Brewery in Marlborough NH. Frogg's has a few snack food items themselves but these guys are there on weekends, or at least most weeks at the moment. Check their facebook page for updates. It was nice to chill at Froggs too while we ate, grabbed a watermelon beer to wash it all down, pretty darn good. Their regular and spicy BBQ sauces were very good to taste. Obviously some minced garlic and some chili flakes for seasoning in each of them. More thick than I like though, probably typical sauce texture almost anyone would expect but I've come to appreciate the more runny vinegar authentic style sauces. Sweet Maple BBQ Sauce was excellent! Not as much minced stuff in it as the others and I don't know if I'd guess it was Maple flavored if I didn't know. More of like a pineapple sweetness to it, but it's actually really good. Pulled pork was almost perfect! Definitely cooked in a sauce at least for a little while but it was still distinctly the great natural taste of pork. Wasn't till I got to the bottom and tasted a giant slab of fat disguised as regular pulled pork (hate it when that happens) but the rest of it was some of the best pulled pork I've ever had. Ribs are smoked like crazy, almost all the meat was red and delicious. Meat doesn't fall off all over the place, texture was pretty good if anything it was a tiny bit on the tougher side but still easy enough to chew. I could taste the seasoning rub on it well enough but it still wasn't that powerful. Sausage was good, definitely the type that fits better as a sausage and peppers and onions sandwich. Lot of that smokey redness to it, very enjoyable. Brisket looked drier than it actually was but still not as juicy as I particularly like them to be. Tougher cut of Brisket, not as flavorful as I'd hoped, the fatty part had a little bit of seasoning flavor to but not much. Brisket was still okay, too many different types of Brisket out there to judge accurately. Chicken was smoked very well and tasted great too, especially with some of that Maple sauce! Hate to say it was a teeny bit on the dry side though but still very yummy. Can't say much about the seasoning on the skin though, not much flavor their at all. I appreciate that the Cole slaw is vinegar based. I prefer that over the mayo based stuff (unless it's super tasty). Didn't pack a ton of flavor though, but it got the job done. Beans were Black beans and Kidney beans in a sorta sweet and savory type of sauce. I really liked the flavor and the beans were cooked well enough but the sauce was very drippy. Not that that's a terrible thing but I'm just use to baked beans that hold onto a lot of that gravy. The beans I had here just kinda felt like they were 2 beans boiled down with some mildly sweet brown sugar juice. But as I said, flavor alone the beans were actually very tasty. Mac and Cheese is Ziti pasta with a blend of cheeses that haven't had the right amount of time to become gooey yet. Ziti really could have been boiled for about 5 minutes longer because it was still tough. Cheese din't have much taste to it and it felt more like a gritty cheesy paste wrapped around the pasta. Not sure what the deal is with this Ziti substitute, this is like the eight place I've been to that does it and it's really getting old but if you have a good cheese recipe then I guess it don't matter what the pasta is, but for some reason none of these ziti places have had it that good. Cornbread is a small cube of yellow cake. Wasn't cornbread at all. Not complaining about the yellow cake, it's yummy enough, but it A'int no damn corn bread.

    I would highly reccomend them to anyone looking to host a tea, shower, or party. They were great…read morefor our fairy tea party office event, as well as my mom's smaller garden-themed birthday party. High Tea first catered an event at my office, which was truly amazing. Such delicious food, wonderful tea, and a really lovely set-up. I liked it so much that I thought of them to cater my mother's 60th birthday party. They came to the house, brought flowers, decorations, everything, really, and made the party memorable. My mom was thrilled and the party was really wonderful. Everyone loved the food (the scones with clotted cream and hat cookies were my favorite) and the house looked amazing with plants and flowers brought inside as it was raining. Really great company and amazing events. Thanks, ladies!

    In a time of extreme uncertainty, I had to cancel my bachelorette in Dover, Vermont a week in…read moreadvance this month. While many companies have been more than understanding with clients and providing refunds at some agreed percentage, including wedding venues, it was unfortunate one of my girlfriends did not have experience that with private chef, Maureen. Instead of offering sympathy, Maureen instead declared the deposits were non-refundable (this was no where stated in the contracted) and since the notice was given less than 30 days, she was not obligated to refund at any measure (another policy that was no where stated in the contract or her website). While my friend continued to try and work with her, Maureen had went on to call her, "entitled", "close-minded" and "immature." I don't think it's immature to want to keep a group of people, including Maureen, safe from the virus. Telling us our only option is to reschedule within a 90 mile radius when we have no idea when this pandemic will end is not helpful. I've been in the hospitality industry for year and I've had a handful of clients actually yell in my face. In no situation would i EVER respond in such a such a way. I was speechless and incredibly disappointed. Many of us are faced in financial hardships but what I've always found to be true is you need to give in order to get. Would not recommend by any means.
