Vendor Spotlight - Chow Girls

I love Chow Girls Catering. Absolutely love them. I had the great pleasure of working with Heidi and Amy at one of my more offbeat weddings. They provided the Catering for a couple of my clients that insisted on having their wedding reception at Nina's Cafe in St. Paul.

Nina's is situated on Western Avenue in a lovely brownstone building, and they make a wicked Chai! Inside, it has a very retro feel, with a hodge podge of mid century furniture, and beautiful artwork adorning the walls. However, when asked if I could pull off an intimate wedding reception there for about 75 guests, I was a little hesitant. After reworking the floor plan, bringing in a lot of rental items and hiring Chow Girls, this fete was perfection!

Chow Girls did an excellent job with their catering, and their serving. When they arrived they set up their buffet station and table settings after I put on the table linens and put out the centerpieces. It was nice that they worked so quickly and skillfully and did not need a ton of direction from me.

The menu was scrumptious to say the least! Chicken Satay, killer crab cakes, and quiche were passed hors d'oeurves and later they offered a buffet. It was divine. (Yes, I snuck a nibble or two!)


I have to say, their food is delicious, their service is great and the menu is spectacular! It has been a couple of years now, and I'm still raving about them. I hope that I get to work with them again in the near future.
