Experience with Gourmet Caterers and/or Nazar Sons, Lahore

Hi all,

We are struggling with caterers. This is by far the most expensive component of the wedding and yet so many of them want you to shell out all this money without giving a sample of the food. Those that have given us samples were either much too expensive or the food was really bad!

We have reasonable price quotes from Gourmet Caterers and Nazar Sons.

PLEASE if you have had any experience with either of these, post and let me know:

1 - how long ago?
2 - what was on the menu?
3 - How was the food? what was good and what was bad?

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Re: Experience with Gourmet Caterers and/or Nazar Sons, Lahore

wow that is quite reasonable, can you let us know where you are arranging the function? Is it a hall or some open space?
And what about the stage decor? Who is reasonable in Lahore for that?

Re: Experience with Gourmet Caterers and/or Nazar Sons, Lahore

we are arranging the function in our society's park it is very well maintained and i have chose white tenting for it, because for 100 person they gave us option of golden, white and black tenting...

for stage decoration we have a meeting today with a vendor which is referred by gourmet lets see what he is offering i will share it by tomorrow Inshallah.....

I really liked the setups in the pictures the showed me so finger crossed :)

Re: Experience with Gourmet Caterers and/or Nazar Sons, Lahore

Thanks all and best wishes with your weddings!

If anyone who has already had experience with either of these caterers and can report on how good the food was could share their experiences it would be very helpful!

Re: Experience with Gourmet Caterers and/or Nazar Sons, Lahore

Hey Belledonne - how many guests at your function? That is less than they quoted us and it would be great to have a reference point for bargaining :) thanks!

(Although they were quoting for a different menu, but we might still change the menu.)
