Wedding with an Asian Influence

This past weekend Gourmet Caterers catered a Wedding in a exquisite private home.  The bride was Asian and all the food had an Asian infusion. The Wedding was supposed to be outside in the beautiful garden, but the weather was playing tricks.  By the time the actual Wedding took place, the weather was beautiful, but too late, we had to do the set up inside.  The appetizers which were passed, were Ahi Tuna on a sesame crackers with creme fraiche, and brie tartlets with grape relish. The buffet consisted of a salad with mango, avocardo, fennel served with a soy citrus dressing.  Prime rib with an Orange soy sauce, Ginger crusted Chilean Seabass with a kiwi lime sauce.  Wasabi mash potatoes and asparagus with hazelnut dressing.  A spectacular wedding cake was brought in by the grooms family.
