My sister was the bride who was unsatisfied with the service provided by The Grapes of Wrath Catering. For some unknown reason, her review was deleted. My sister was unsatisfied with this vendor and she has the right to be heard. I am not a direct client of the vendor, but I did taste the food and I believe this qualifies me to proivde a review. Now I will say that my sister and her husband had very specific requirements for their wedding fare. They requested Chilean food prepared in the Vegan manner. I realize this is perhaps a tough requirement to fulfill, and I don't know how other caterers would have rated, but the food was mediocre at best. My sister will also vouch for the fact that the vendor refused to prepare any of the food before the wedding for a tasting. This vendor provides monthly tastings, showcasing her standard menu, but flat-out refused at any moment to prepare my sister's dishes before the wedding, thus not allowing the couple to provide any feedback before the date of the event. The ""Porotos Granados"" (that Dana references below in her own review of her own service) is already a Vegan recipe. The chef took creative liberty, adding ingredients that are not traditionally included, and excluding ingredients that are key in the preparation of this recipe. Most of our relatives did not even recognize what the dish was supposed to be. There is one final thing I would like to point out. My sister and her husband were very satisfied with all of the other vendors provided by the Holly Farm. They had no other complaints about their weekend and had a lovely wedding. Perhaps this vendor is suitable for standard, traditional weddings, but they were inflexible and unwilling to accomodate this couple's specific requirements.
