Sharing my feedback and review for Hizon's Catering for our wedding last Feb 21
Caterer: Hizon’s Catering 7/10
Peso Power: 140,000
We got a good deal with Hizon’s. I must say this is one of the perks of having a husband that is good at sales talk and negotiations- we got Hizon’s package at a very low price of 140k good for 200 pax. (700 per head)
This includes:
**2 types appetizer: Ebi tempura rolls with roasted sesame dressing & Shrimp & smoked fish cocoon in lemon aioli
**Soup, Salad, Pasta: Truffled three mushroom soup, peach mango salad with peach mango vinaigrette dressing, fettuccine with carbonara sauce
**Slow roasted US Beef with mushroom gravy, baked fish fillet stuffed with spinach & bechamel sauce, apple braised pork belly, chicken sambal and farm's harvest vegetables
**Dessert bar: red velvet cupcake, flourless chocolate cake, baked blueberry cheesecake, vanilla creme brulee, mango pandan panacotta, peach egg tart, mixed fruits and mallows with dark and white chocolate fondue sauce
**100 pcs quesadilla (served during cocktail hour)
**Unlimited soft drinks and iced tea
**Free +10 pax buffer
Despite some negative feedback sa lasa ng food ni Hizon’s, I can say that I am giving them 10/10 dahil ang daming nagsabi na masarap ang food. After our wedding, kusa nagtetext samin yung mga nagpuntang guests na ang sarap daw ng handa namin. Even after my vacation leave, pagbalik ko sa office, yung food pa rin ang pinag uusapan na masarap daw. Most of them said na gusto pa nila kumain dahil marami pang food pero nakailang balik na daw sila at busug na busog na sila.
Maganda rin ang styling at set up per table. Nasunod ang napag usapan during detailing! Everyone loved the flowers!! Matched with our motif.
The minus 1 point goes to the backdrop styling; may mga details na di nasunod. When I emailed them about it, nagcrack daw kasi yung isang panel on their way to our venue that is why they had to modify some details. Oh well, I had to let go – buti na lang nadala ng backdrop lighting!
The other minus 1 point goes to the appetizer which my planner LA mentioned during the final meeting na 3 pcs of each appetizer will be served. So we assumed, since 2 types ang appetizer, each of the guests will be served with 6 pcs appetizer. According to our guests tig 5 pcs per table lang daw ang naiserve. kaya medyo disappointed kami sa part na ito.
Another minus 1 point goes to the doves – walang doves!! During our final meeting, we were asked pa kung ang doves daw ba ay sa church or sa reception dadalhin? Kung irerelease daw ba or for picture taking and video lang na ipagkikiss yung doves. Wenk wenk wenk. Wala naman palang doves come wedding day. Okay lang din. feeling ko mahahassle lang ako humawak, pero mas okay sana kung meron.
We already sent an email to LA to know what actually happened. Overall, despite these 3 items, we were happy and satisfied with Hizon’s. Okay lang na may nakalimutan silang details. Kesa nakalimutan nila sarapan yung food. Sabi nga ng friend ko, pag ang wedding walang glitches, hindi daw masaya. Fine! Hehe.
