Food Tasting
Let me tell you being a bride is hard work! One of the duties my fiancé and I are in charge of is choosing the food for the reception. My fiancé and I decided to do a plated dinner for all of the guests. The salad was the first thing we had to taste.
We tasted 3 different salads to decide which would be the best choice. The first salad was a spinach salad with vinaigrette, hazelnuts and blue cheese. The second salad was a regular garden salad with vinaigrette and the third salad was spinach with craisins, red onion, slivered almonds and vinaigrette. The minute my fiancé and I tasted the last salad we both agreed it was the best choice by far!
For the main entre there were a couple dishes we tried to decide which ones to go with. We want our guests to have the choice of a chicken dish vs. a steak/pork dish. We tried two types of chicken dishes. The first dish was sweet chili chicken with pineapple and the second dish was teriyaki chicken with mango. Again after the first bite of the sweet chili chicken with pineapple we knew that was our first choice for the chicken dish.
As for the steak/pork dish we had two choices. The first choice was steak served with as a duet plate with salmon. The second choice was a pork dish, which is only served with pork no other combination. After tasting the steak dish we both knew again that it was by far the best choice.
Our Final menu:
Spinach salad with craisins, red onion, slivered almonds and vinaigrette
Your choice of:
Sweet Chili Chicken with Pineapple served over white rice and grilled asparagus
Or
Steak and Blackened Salmon duet plate served over mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus
Yummy!
