Before attending a wedding expo, I did preliminary research on caterers that offer delicious food at affordable rates. One of the names that repeatedly came out was Queensland Catering. So, come the day of the expo, I made it a point to look for the booth and ask for more information.
Regarding the menu, I had the impression that the dishes were a notch above the usual Filipino or Chinese fiesta style wedding reception fare that most affordable caterers offer. Queensland had on their menu Iberian Chicken, Chicken Gallantina, Roast Pork with Pineapple Sauce, Assorted Cold Cuts (for appetizer), and Seafood Kebab with Mediterranean Yogurt Dip to name a few. As if to highlight the value of the dishes, they named their packages after jewels: Ruby, Emerald, Jade, Pearl and Diamond.
The standard rates of the packages alone are really affordable and there are already some amenities that come with each. However, take note that there are also additional charges for equipment usage, VAT, travel/delivery charge depending on location, and drinking mineral water. Still, I appreciate that they were honest about the additional charges. I'd rather know at once than be surprised. Also, if my computation is right, even with the added charges, Queensland still has the most reasonable price.
All in all, Queensland Catering is a value for money caterer. They offer a little higher than basic amenities plus a little more variety than the usual menu while remaining affordable. The only downside is computing exactly how much you have to pay once you take into account the additional charges. read more
