On January 16, 2023, I hired JackieSue Catering Services for a Repast Dinner. The Owner, Mrs. Jackie Sue was nice and polite; but her catering service was not of Good Standards. I had to apologize to all who attended the Repast Dinner and all those who experience the unpalatable (difficult to tolerate or accept) food prepared by JackieSue's Catering Services. Her staff was not dressed appropriately for the event. And, my daughter and cousin had to help serve; because 3 of Mrs. JackieSue's workers had left the location before the dinner was served. The food was prepared as such, the Greens were over cooked and needed to be drained before placed on the plates; the Red Beans and Rice look liked-she used boxed Zatarain's Red Beans and White; the Sweet Potatoe Pies were full of strings; and the Peach Cobbler looked sloppy; not enough peaches in the cobbler; the Mac and Cheese was ok; and the Cornbread was burned and stuck to the muffin paper. However, the Turkey, Ham and Sweet Tea was delicious. The reason why; I'm so detailed about this situation is because......I am an excellent cook and know this was unacceptable as a professional Caterer or Chef. Anyone that plans to hire this Caterer (Mrs. JackieSue) should schedule a taste test; before hiring her catering service. And be sure, to discuss the Dress attire of her workers/ staff. Inclusion, the invoice was $4,190(which was paid in advance) and we rewarded her ($350) Gratuity; because of her kindness; not because of her services. Oh, we paid for set up and clean up. However, we were very disappointed; we had to call the workers to return back to clean up. This was a Lesson for us! We feel as though, we were taken for our money! Even though, JackieSue Catering Services was referred by a reliable source; we felt embarrassed because we did not do our due; diligently, in finding a professional Caterer. read more
