I would like to thank Jolanta for her great efforts in catering our few events. The first experience was when we had a backyard party with 7 adults and 5 kids. Jolanta promptly responded to all our inquiries. She would spend time patiently explaining the different food combinations, in addition to elaborating on their ingredients. Her attentive and pleasant personality made the process smooth and seamless. She even sent us her menu with pictures of each dish included. She is a very talented caterer, and is very creative! She prepares different types of cuisine from a variety of cultures. Our guests were very impressed with her Mexican tacos, and her coleslaw was delicious! The kids loved her Spanish rice with beans and her octopus salad was phenomenal. My husband and I are very picky eaters. Nevertheless, we were impressed! In addition, to the delicious taste, the foods presentation was an art form! You look at the food and you want to eat it with your eyes. We received so many compliments from our guests. Our second experience was when Jolanta was catering my son's birthday party. We were not disappointed as well! Variety of salads and snacks, a lot of healthy choices for kids and adults made a truly enjoyable evening for both kids and adults. We are always impressed with her ideas about food. She is working with different types of cuisine: American, French, Eastern European, Indian, Italian, Latin American! Finally - great quality food, excellent presentation and professionalism. We will definitely be hiring Jolanta to cater our future parties.
