Christine's Plates 

5.0

Raleigh, NC
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Offer

Welcome to Christine's Plates, a heartfelt journey inspired by the warmth of grandmother's kitchen. Our story is rooted in the rich tapestry of generational legacy, where rustic farm-inspired cuisine becomes a tribute to tradition, quality, and community. It all started with a simple apron, a symbol of love, and a spark that ignited our passion for food. Christine's Plates is more than a dining experience; it's a celebration of cherished memories and the enduring spirit of our grandmother's dream.

Awarded Best of Zola
My daughter discovered Christine's Plates for her wedding. We had some disheartening meetings with other vendors. After my daughter's first meeting with Latasha she was able to exhale. Finally she had a vendor that listened to her wants. As her mother I was thrilled. The food was so delicious and the service was top notch. Annie, our coordinator, took all the stress away from us and made my daughter's day magical. Katrina was everywhere! If a question popped into our head...Katrina was right there to answer or find the answer for us. Christine's Plates are professional from start to finish. Our family highly recommends the extraordinary ladies of Christine's Plates.

We utilized Sassool for our wedding because we frequently visit Sassool for dinner and are never disappointed. I was amazed how knowledgeable and prepared they were to cater a wedding. They were accommodating of every scenario we threw at them and even were able to make adjustments the day of. The catering staff was very friendly and efficient. The pricing was extremely fair and our guests later told us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! Would highly recommend.

Our plated dinner was perfect, our combo plate with big portions and they sent steak sauces for those who asked even though we didn't mention it.

He was incredibly responsive and helpful from the get-go. He assisted us in creating the perfect bar and cocktail menu and guided us on how much alcohol we would need to keep our guests happy, even in 100-degree weather! Johnny's signature cocktail mixes were an absolute hit. He batched cocktails for us, including a delightful blackberry margarita and a unique basil honey bourbon. The drinks were so good; I wish he would share his secrets! Nancy, our onsite bartender, was amazing. We couldn't have chosen a better person for the job! She was fantastic, keeping everyone hydrated and in a dancing mood. All of our guests loved her. We highly recommend Johnny's Bartending Service and would use them again in a heartbeat.

Graze Dat! Charcuterie 

5.0

  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Raleigh, NC for additional fees

Graze Dat Charcuterie takes the diverse presentation aspect to an entirely new level. The charcuterie arrangements, or “grazing” boards, produced by owner Elizabeth Choto are vibrant works of art, with various cured meats, sausages, fruits, vegetables, pickles, chutneys and cheeses arrayed in spiraling, three dimensional designs that often resemble floral arrangements

Hiring Graze Dat to put together a grazing table for a good friends babyshower was the best decision in regards to food options I could have made. Not only was it beautiful, but so delicious and fresh. It was a hit and completely stress free! I could not recommend them more and will be a returning customer for sure.
