Catering thread 4

[twelve5]

If your are getting them, request for the yema balls, espresso brownies and fudge brownies for dessert.  Sarap din their iced tea.

Noted, noted and noted. 

Sis, meron ka bang di ganong fave sa menu ng SI?

Thanks a lot again!

^  Yung chicken lollies are okay lang for me, puwedeng i-skip.  Yung spaghetti din hindi ko gusto.  Mas gusto ko ang lasagna sa mga pasta nila.

^magkano marose ang mongolian bbq nila? Wala pa konkretong plano sa june ang kulit ko pabago-bago ng isip

[Grayce]

^i love SI's mongolian buffet. sayang d ako nakadayo when i was in manila

seeing this thread also makes me miss PC's food. frustrated parin ako sa catfish salad nila na hindi ko nakain during my son's birthday dahil eto ang naunang naubos

[marose17]

^^ Rain, last year, P400 or P350 per head yata yun, 30 people.  May kasama ng refillable iced tea and dessert - yung espresso brownies, yema balls and butterscotch squares yata yun.  Sulit na sulit kasi naka-ilang balik ang guests namin pero ang dami pa ring natirang meat, veggies and condiments.    Natuwa kami sa presentation ng Mongolian bbq kasi pareho talaga sa presentation nila sa coffee shop.  Malaking griller yung ginamit nila at mabilis yung cook.   Naaliw ang friends namin kasi cooked on the spot ang food, hindi yung usual pipili ka from a chafing dish and serve yourself.

Mas okay though itong Mongolian bbq if the party is to be held outdoors para hindi maamoy sa loob or if indoors, may kitchen ang venue.

^ Pagawa tayo kay Maja pagbalik mo.  Order tayo.

[stormy]

^^yes sarap mongolian bbq nila d nagbago.

^pool side oks kaya yan marose? Parang type ko yan na lang kahit d swak sa theme  

[marose17]

^ Puwede sa pool side basta may pupuwestuhan yung grill (eto yung stainless na parang sa McDonald's and Jollibee) at ang cook.   Ang saya niyan!  Napaka-relaxing.

[stormy]

^ I'll suggest this to hubby, sana marelax kaunti rule nya na d pwede party sa lugar namin he prefers kasi sa gb5 sana.

[Grayce]

marose17: nagrequest ako ng dressing! LOL. sabi ko papahand carry ko dun sa family friend ko papunta dito hihi. lets see kung pumayag

stormy: bonus rin na ang babait ng mga staff nila! kilala ako by face ng mga old waiters nila soon kasi since HS kumakain na ako dun hehe

[twelve5]

marose17, thanks again for your help. sorry na rin ang dami kong tanong. hehe... God bless! =)

[marose17]

^ No problem.   You can dine there sa coffee shop para ma-taste mo yung food na ise-serve mo sa party. 

[twelve5]

^ yups! Since di pa ako maka uwi sa manila ngayon, it was my sister who ate there recently. She  ordered kare-kare, spicy spare ribs, etc,  some desserts and ok naman daw lahat. Babalik pa sya to try other dishes. Happy naman sya sa assignment nya. Hehe

[marose17]

^ Masarap ang cakes!  Fave ko ang chocolate cake nila (either chocolate delight or yung may caramel) and peach walnut torte.

[twelve5]

^ Mango royale and silvanas ata yung binili nya. Sabi nya oks yung mango royale, yung silvanas wala pang feedback. Dunno if she forgot to tell me lang.

I wont tell her to sample those na. Baka lalong tumaba yun eh. Hehe... I'll just take your word for it. Haha!

Btw, sis alam mo ba ano yung french riviera pasta? Wala kasi akong makita sa google.

[marose17]

^ I am not familiar with the French Riviera pasta.  Napaka-exotic ng name haha.

[Grayce]

^ Masarap ang cakes!  Fave ko ang chocolate cake nila (either chocolate delight or yung may caramel) and peach walnut torte.

i love their cakes! tsaka mga pastries nya

[twelve5]

^^ Nasa party menu kasi nila yan. First time ko nga na encounter eh... Papatanong ko nalang sa sister ko next time. Balitaan kita. Hehe =)

Eta: ooops! Its french riviera fettucini pala.  But just the same wala akong ma-research about it.

Has anyone availed of Passion Cooks' kiddie menu? How was it? How's their service in terms of kiddie parties?

[marose17]

^ I did almost 2 years ago.  What I liked about the kiddie meal was that you can choose a plated menu although buffet service is also an option.  Less hassle for the kids since there is a waiter dedicated to them.  As I recall, cute ang sectional plates nila and they served fresh fruit juice, not soda or iced tea, for the kids (pati sa adults din pala).  Baked macaroni, mini pork bbq skewers, cheese sticks, sandwich triangles + a dessert ang kiddie menu namin.

In terms of service, excellent sila.  I love Maja and Melissa and the waitstaff.  Food is great.  I am not a fan of the more popular caterers in this thread since I find the food just average plus the set-up is usually not to my liking, but I really love the food, set-up and styling of Passion Cooks.

[WandaWits]

^ what package did you avail for the kids & adults? Did they decorate for the theme too? Ganda kase ng set up nila. When my bro inquired for his wedding, may additional 30K+ daw if they want extra decoration. But that's for the wedding naman.
