“Wow! Thank you so much to you and the team for providing great food and great service. Right from the get-go, people were impressed with the buffet lunch.

Can I also say, your delivery skills were impressive! We were able to run tea time smoothly and lunch smoothly because Sylvia was always there early and saved us so much time setting up.
