We hired The White Apron for our October 2018 wedding and it was one the best decisions we made for our wedding day. To this day, I still have people telling me it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. My grandfather, who tends to be a little hard to impress, was blown away by the service and quality of food they provided to us. From start to finish working with The White Apron was amazing. I would recommend them to anyone getting married, because there aren't enough great things I can say about Liz, Jay & the whole White Apron team.

The team at Foster's and the event manager helping out with our dinner were so wonderful to work with. They were very flexible, letting us come in earlier in the day to set up some decor, etc. The food was SO good - everyone raved about their meals. They helped us set up the music we wanted to play and a tv for a photo slideshow. All of the staff were kind and did a great job making sure our guests had everything they needed.

Wellesley, MA
  • Serves New Hampshire

We take pride in providing exceptional service and incredible cuisine from around the world! Our authentic multicultural offerings set us apart, allowing couples the freedom to fuse different cultural cuisines to create a unique and personalized experience for their guests.

About 5-6 months before our wedding, our original caterer re-quoted our pricing that I had signed over a year ago and it had increased by almost 15k! I was so distraught and stressed, as you can imagine. Luckily I found Soraya through a Facebook wedding group after I had asked for a second opinion. SHE SAVED MY WEDDING DAY. My husband and I are Cambodian and Chinese and trying to find any upscale asian caterer in the NorthShore was darn near impossible. I had my heart set on an upscale multi-course asian banquet menu. We ended up with 10 courses! Soraya made it happen and all the food was made on site at our venue in Peabody (the Olio). Our guests could not stop raving about how delicious everything was! To think I almost went with drop catering as I thought that was my only option. Thank goodness I found Soraya! As anyone who has ever thrown a big event knows, the food will make or break an event. And Soraya's food MADE our wedding a huge success. Soraya made sure fried foods were crispy, hot foods were HOT, and each table service was flawlessly delivered. Even our foodie families were happy with the food and were so surprised at how authentic everything tasted. We had menu items that were Chinese and Cambodian. I would hire Soraya and her team again, and again, and again. She kept me at ease and made sure everything was flawlessly executed. THANK YOU again for everything Soraya. You have mine and my families deepest appreciation.

Transport your guests to the Alps with Ben's Raclette! Since 2023, Ben Piscopo has specialized in serving crispy, gooey Alpine cheese scraped onto fresh baguette with seasonal accompaniments right in front of guests. Ben was raised in New England’s snowy mountains with a deep appreciation of Alpine cuisine. After visiting his grandmother’s birthplace in Switzerland, he sought to capture the essence of visiting the Alps through a decadent food experience. He makes sure that every bite of raclette is a true taste of the Alps. En Guete! (Bon appétit!)

We hired Ben for a cocktail hour before our ceremony at a ski lodge in central Mass, and it was a huge hit! Melted raclette cheese was perfect for our theme. Our guests really felt like they were in the Alps. The aroma of the melting raclette was amazing, and the taste was even better. If you're looking for a unique and delicious addition to your event, I would definitely recommend Ben's Raclette!

Based in Brattleboro, Vermont, our restaurant and catering services are driven by the ingredients we source locally -- from our meats and cheeses to our vegetables and honey -- from farms and gardens around the region. Our chef-driven menus feature fresh, seasonal ingredients served in classic American cuisine and inspiring international fare.

The food was delicious. You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the talent of the chef. However, Coribon was not responsive and hard to get a hold of throughout the planning process. He's very nice and kind but clearly doesn't have enough time in a day to do everything he has on his plate.

From fiery dipping sauces to crowd-pleasing sides, every dish is packed with flavor and made to satisfy. At Crispy Gai, we’re all about good food, good energy, and creating memorable food experiences wherever we go.

Where to begin!? Wow wow wow was Crispy Gai the highlight of our wedding day. From the start, Nikki greeted us with such an energetic, exciting and fun vibe that we knew it was meant to be. She was communicative, accommodating and flexible to meet our needs and worked with us to create a unique and delicious menu, which also provided options for all allergies!! Now- for the food itself.. mouthwatering. The guests have been ranting and raving over it ever since! So many of our guests loved it SO much they now enjoy going to their restaurant in Portland (which, of course, we regularly attend also!). Crispy Gai had such a hands-off approach which is what my husband and I were looking for. They had all the utensils, plates, napkins..etc. and kept their window open for 4 hours serving our guests at their leisure- we didn’t have to worry about a thing! At the end of their time with us, the team kindly wrapped my husband and me up a goody bag with such an array of leftovers to take home with us that we enjoyed our second dinner reminiscing on how amazing the day was! Highly highly highly recommend Crispy Gai! They were so much fun to have with us, the food- amazing, the communication and planning process was made so easy because of them. Gosh. I could go on and on. Such an unforgettable experience and our day wouldn’t have been what it was without them!
