Blend Catering catered a 35-person wedding dinner for us in Truckee, CA this past June, and both…read morethe food and service were absolutely amazing! Everyone at the event was genuinely impressed. Their menu structure is very straightforward--they offer clear standard pricing with a variety of options, as well as optional upgrades. We decided to upgrade to the filet, and it was worth every penny! Ahead of the big day, they hosted a private tasting for us in Reno so we could finalize our selections and fine-tune a few details. On the day of the event, Chef Memo and his team arrived right on time and seamlessly converted our home kitchen into a prep station to finish and plate the dinner, which was served outside. They handled a few last-minute schedule changes with total ease. The entire staff was exceptionally kind, helpful, and attentive throughout the night. Menu Highlights: Appetizers/Stations: The taco station, mini lobster rolls, and sliders were huge crowd favorites. Dessert: The variety of mini desserts was a massive hit with our guests. At the end of the night, they left our kitchen spotless and neatly stacked all the rental items in the garage for pickup. We enthusiastically recommend Blend Catering to anyone looking for a top-tier catering team!

Choosing Blend as our caterer was easily one of the best choices we made for our wedding day!…read moreWorking with Whitney and the Blend team was an absolute pleasure from the very beginning. They were always quick and responsive to answer our questions and the ease of scheduling our tasting was so easy! We loved that the tasting was an option and we both agreed this was easily our favorite part of the planning process. The only difficult aspect was selecting final proteins, sides, and appetizers because they're all SO good that you wish you could choose them all. The catering team on the day of the wedding were so freaking sweet. They were flexible, rolled with the rain, and didn't skip a beat on timing or set-up. It was important to us to attend our cocktail hour (in lieu of photos and missing out on guests), but as an extra benefit - the second I'd finished an appetizer, the Blend team was magically at my side to give me another. Truly, 10/10 service! In an unexpected moment, one of the Blend catering staff had congratulated us on a beautiful wedding and had then said: "They say rain is good luck on your wedding day because it washes away all the hardship that's come before." I've previously heard that 'rain on your wedding day is good luck', yet I'd never heard the second part of the saying or 'why' it's good luck. She couldn't have known our story, but my husband's a Marine and we've been together for 11 years through countless deployments, exercises, and overseas assignments. Her sharing that with us meant so much and it's stuck as one of the profound moments where I felt incredibly present and rooted on that day. Not only that moment, but all of the Blend staff were so kind and present with all our guests. I would see them laughing and joking and our guests could not stop raving about how good the food was!! They also LOVED that there was the option to go back for seconds. Each of the Blend staff at one point had complimented my dress (it was black!) and they all made me feel beautiful and seen in so many ways. As the late night bites were passed around and one of the trays emptied, the Blend girls joined us on the dance floor and it was such an epic blast. On the logistics front, Blend delivered yet again. We had 2 guests with allergies and 2 guests with dietary preferences and coordinating their needs were so easy. We also discovered one of our guests had a tonsillectomy 3 days before our wedding, so we messaged the Blend team to see if they could make any last minute accommodations and again - they delivered! From the food, to the service, to their people - Blend is one of the best choices you can make for your wedding. I can't recommend them, their food, or their staff enough. Our final selection choices: - Appetizers: Korean beef short rib wrap, pork belly skewer with maple bourbon glaze (MY FAVE), and the tuna tostada (my second fave!) - Mains: The gochujang buttermilk fried chicken thighs and New York steak with au poivre sauce - Sides: Mashed potatoes (we LOVED the smashed potatoes during our tasting, but opted for mashed instead to dip the protein in, IYKYK), grilled asparagus. - Salad: Honey crisp salad - Drink station: apple cider, strawberry lemonade, and cucumber water (This was also such a huge hit for our guests that don't drink! They loved having more options than just soda or water.)

Since I'm new to town, it's nice to meet and check out the local vibe. Myron and I communicated about the types of boards that he offered and told me that he would honor the giveaway win for up to a year so that I could plan accordingly. I picked up my choice board this afternoon and it was absolutely stunning. All of the offerings were laid out perfectly and looked delicious! I opened it when I got home and was able to try a little here and there and it does not disappoint. Beautiful platter, great selection and wonderful service. I can't wait to come back for their charcuterie board classes and try more that they have to offer! Highly recommend!

When Vesta and I lived in New Zealand, we had a Japanese girl named Shino, who was on sort of an…read moreexchange program with Kiwi girls, living with us for a month and since we didn't have a job, we went everywhere the bus took her and the twenty-four other girls who came with her to New Zealand. And one of the places the bus took us to was a Maori Hangi, which is sorta like a Luau, only more fun. Cooking a pig in the ground is part of their culture and let me tell you, they know how to cook a pig. It was to die for. Vesta and I met Rob last June, when he was catering a Beer NV event and we were treated to his roast pig and now here is where I compare it to that Hangi Vesta and I went to with Shino and her crew. It was every bit as good. There is just something about roast pig and beer. It's a combination made in Heaven, I'm sure. Flash forward to this morning. Vesta and I pulled into a parking spot on the Sierra Street Bridge at a quarter to seven, behind Rob's van as he was getting out. So naturally, I wanted to take his photo for my Facebook 1001 Days of Faces project so asked him and he said yes. And if you're getting married and you want someone to cater your reception, you might wanna give Rob at Pig Out a call. He's pretty reasonable, his food is delicious and it's different. Your guests will be talking about it for years to come.

I got a Thai Veggie Curry and a Thai Chicken Curry and shared them with another person. Both were excellent, quite tasty, and well prepared. The veggies were so fresh and delicious and still had some crunch to them. The rice was equally delicious and what I appreciated most was the curry was light and the dish wasn't swimming in a soupy mess... it was all nicely coated Everything is sustainable, organic and containers recyclable. All good stuff. The portions were quite adequate and at $14 per meal I thought it was worth it. The only criticism I have is they seemed to be a bit overwhelmed, although not terribly busy. However, regardless I highly recommend their food.

That's why this review is a tough one to write. This year I ordered one of their charcuterie boxes, and while the presentation was cute (the salami rose was adorable!), the overall value just didn't match the $22 price tag. The portion size and variety left a lot to be desired, and I honestly walked away feeling a bit underwhelmed. I'm hoping this was just an off experience because I've had such great luck with them in the past. I still love supporting local and know what they're capable of--but for the price, I'd love to see the quality and quantity better reflect the Cherry Bomb standard I've come to expect.
