I would do Crepes and Mashed Potatos. The other stuff you see more often.

Is this during dinner or cocktail hours? The mash potato seems yummy but wouldn't think of it as cocktail hour food. But that sounded really yummy - got me hungry!

I would do the crepe station and the dim sum station. I personally don't like mashed potatoes.. I went to an affair where they put the mashed potatoes into a martini glass with all the toppings, and thought it looked a little tacky. just my personal opinion.. the crepe station seems nice.

Re: Menu Appt. Tomorrow.... What Do You Think?

we did dim sum and italian feast but i wanted mashed potatoes. eveyone said it would be too heavy though before dinner so i didn't do it. i love panini's but thought the italian feast had more to it--more choices of food for the guests.

good luck and let us know what you decide

I would go for the potato station too. It's not the usual thing you see as a station.

Re: Menu Appt. Tomorrow.... What Do You Think?

Dim sum and Italian Feast. My FH and I think the Mashed Potato bar is really cool, but our BM told us that is one of those things that everyone looks and and thinKs "cool", but no one ever really eats.

Re: Menu Appt. Tomorrow.... What Do You Think?

I would choose the italian or dim sum, everyone likes something from that. The mashed potatoes would be really cool, but you don't want the guests to fill up too much before dinner, and potatoes are very heavy.

Re: Menu Appt. Tomorrow.... What Do You Think?

I love the way they do the mashed potato bar.. it is really neat. I am definitely doing this one.. I also love the dim sum station.. I hear ya how hard it is to narrow down the choices....I can't even think about which appetizers we want off of their list! It's tough! Good luck.. let us know.. Yay.. your day is coming up fast!!!!
