Had the food tasting today! Wedding is getting real!

FH and I attended the food tasting today to decide which two entrees for our plated meals. We got to choose three to be prepared for us and it was fun to try the food and chat to our wedding planner (from the venue). Each meal is also served with a salad (we need to decide on either a garden or Caesar salad) as the first course and we will be having a cocktail hour prior with appetizers.

The one I was most excited about on paper was absolutely delicious! Brazilian Beef in a chimichuri (sp?) sauce with sweet potato mash (hello! 💜💜💜) and sauteed red peppers and green beans. I literally could have eaten a whole pot of mash! Our second offering was Walleye and it was a big no from me. No flavour, just bland. The third offering was Salmon in a butter sauce and that was lovely. Served with cilantro and black bean rice, grilled asparagus and tiny tomatoes. My FH ate all his salmon and half of mine. 😁 We have to have a gluten free option so it's nice they both are. The planner asked us questions about the food (taste? Dry? Tender? Need more seasoning? Etc etc) which she would then give to the chef. I felt like Gordon Ramsey! Lol

I know it might be odd not having a chicken dish but we are very happy with our decisions! We will also be offering a silent vegan dish and a kids meal of chicken nuggets, fries and fruit.

How did your tastings go?
