Many commented that it was the best wedding buffet they had ever had. Paulina and her staff were so prepared; they were attentive to all our needs, we had plenty of food left after everyone ate, they were polite to all our guests and they left the kitchen spotless at the end of the night. I was very concerned about having a good caterer, as I have worked in the business myself. Paulina addressed all my concerns and assured me it would all be great. I believed her and she did not let me down. I would highly recommend her to all of my friends and family or anyone else looking for a caterer.

Not without hiccups I had explained to Paulina the wrong venue which was close in proximity to where we were. The space we thought was smaller than anticipated but that didn't stop Paulina and her crew from making the changes to accommodate. We had went for the the luncheon package of building your own bunwich along with veggies, salads and Pastry. It was outstanding no complaints everyone enjoyed and Paulina and her crew were friendly and efficient. My family and I would recommend paulina's catering to anyone looking I know if I ever have a function again I will hire them. This company is beyond five stars!!! Thank you for helping make the day memorable.

After searching for an appropriate caterer for our wedding of 160 people, I was starting to feel…read morequite overwhelmed. It seemed that nobody within our budget offered the type of traditional roast beef and ham dinner with all the fixings that we wanted. After speaking to a particularily unenthusiastic caterer, I was nearly convinced I would cater the wedding myself, until I came across Elegant Affairs. When I first spoke to John on the phone, he came across as a bit more casual than you might expect; however he seemed to have a suitable answer to all of my burning questions, and offered practical solutions to my concerns. We agreed to meet with him. My fiance and I met John at his home, where we were welcomed by his adorable pooches before being ushered into his comfortable living room. As we spoke, it became quite apparent that this man not only loved what he does, but he was AMAZING at it. He even gave us a tour of his custom industrial kitchen located in a seperate area of his home. We were convinced. We arranged the contract and agreed to drop off the deposit later that week. When we went to drop off the deposit, John generously offered us VIP passes to an event that Elegant Affairs was catering, as he had extra passes that he wasn't able to use. We accepted them enthusiastically and attended the awesome event, and sampled John's food for the first time. We fell in love with the roast potatoes and knew at that moment, dinner would be a highlight of our special day. The night before the wedding, as we were setting up the hall, I had a moment of sheer terror when I realized that I had forgotten the hall rental did not include wine glasses. It was late on a friday night and I phoned John in a panic, nearly in tears actually. He was so relaxed ad calm and eased my worries right away by offering to drop off some wine glasses to me that very night! He was literally my night in shining armour and did not make it seem like it was a big inconvienience. The big day arrived and we had a wonderful service and dinner was served. John's staff introduced themselves to us and brought our meal directly to the head table, as well as to the table with my grandparents, who have reduced mobility. The service was amazing. The food was incredible. Our guests still comment to this day on how good the food was at our wedding! If you are looking for a caterer that truly goes above and beyond, and does it with a smile, call these guys!

We have asked Pat to host 2 separate occasions for us now. Both were such incredible experienceS we…read morecan't wait to have him come back. Pat is able to set up a beautiful ambiance, presentation and conversation! He worked with us beforehand to personalize our menu. He is such a joy to have in your own kitchen. He takes care of absolutely everything and before he leaves your kitchen is absolutely spotless. Honestly, my partner and I were blown away. It was such a treat to host a small dinner party in your own home and actually get to sit back and relax the whole time! If you are thinking of doing something unique and fun for your friends and family, I cannot recommend Pat enough. He is super adorable and once you meet him, you will definitely be inviting him back for more celebrations.

There was a spring salad…read morethat was supposed to be the vegetarian option, when I went to take the plastic off the dish, I was told that I wasn't allowed to have any, that it was the vegetarian option and if I had some there wouldn't be enough left for others. I went back for seconds after everyone had gone through the line and the plastic was still on the dish, I guess the server from Mercers didn't let anyone have any. They also started clanging dishes and silverware in the middle of the speaches, they had to be told to keep it down. I will never use Mercers.

The dressing was poor too with big chunks of bun a bit of celery and spice. They give a spring salad mix with a couple toss ins. Dessert is bite sized nanimo bar, a shortbread cookie and 2 thimble sized things. Pathetic. They charged about 65$ for this, unreal. You'd be better off getting frozen turkey dinners from a store and picking up whatever else you want to go with it. Very disappointed.

I was really really impressed by her prompt responses while other competitors got back to me one or two days later- and that's the reason we finally chose D&H. We wanted their traditional buffet and need some customization. So I had several conversations with Deidre to finalize the menu to decide the appetizers and the tastes of entree dishes . She was always very patient to answer my questions and accommodated our needs. Finally the event night was wonderful. The food was fresh and delicious. Baby Croissants Stuffed with Tarragon Egg Salad was my favorite during the night. I would recommend D&H catering to my friends and will choose them again for my next event.

There was an excellent selection for every taste and dietary need, including vegetarian and I believe one gluten-free item. The menu included cocktail meatballs, pork slices on crostini, chicken skewers with peanut satay sauce and coconut (my favourite for the evening!), spicy cornmeal puffs that reminded me a bit of pakoras, puff pastry with cheese inside, and a great selection of desserts like cookies, squares, and tarts. Since I was not involved in planning the event I have no idea about pricing, but if I was with an organization needing to cater a swanky event, I would definitely call Bridges first for a quote.
