We used Xim Catering for our wedding in late June of this year. I cannot even begin to describe the attention to detail, level of professionalism, love and hard work you will get with Lenny and Xim catering. From the first email, Lenny was adamant that he would do anything to make our wedding day the most special day. He went above and beyond with this promise.
We coordinated everything from LA and he was very responsive over email. We opted to the tasting dinner, the cost of which went toward the final bill. If you go with Xim (WHICH YOU SHOULD!), do the tasting dinner! It was one of the best dining experiences of my life. Lenny and his wife came and prepared everything in my mom's kitchen from drinks to apps to sides and main dishes. We could absolutely taste the love they put into these recipes in every bite. Even the guacamole was the best I have ever had. After their meticulous post-dinner cleanup, you never would have known they were there.
I haven't mentioned yet that I have celiac disease, meaning I can't have any gluten at all (incl trace amounts in cross contamination). Lenny made sure there was no gluten at the wedding, period, and our guests never knew! He also modified a couple of dishes to make sure our vegan and vegetarian friends had delicious options.
Our final menu included esquites and chips and guac for apps, green mole chicken, adobo pork, a quinoa dish, and refried pinto beans for our taco fillings. We did tostadas and corn tortillas, but honestly, they were totally unnecessary. I would have eaten all of the fillings straight off of a plate with my bare hands if I had to.
Our signature cocktails were a tequila based burro loco with serrano peppers and a blackberry bourbon smash. We also had Lenny make a few batches of his amazing chocolate, coffee, mezcal drink.
Lenny and his crew also helped our lone coordinator set up and tear down the whole wedding and brought the prettiest decorations for his tables.
Our friends and families still talk about the food and how amazing our caterers were. Several have even said they are going to use Xim for their next catered event. Do not hesitate to book this caterer!!! read more
