I've been procrastinating on this email for a while now. A few months back, FH and I went to a food tasting for our venue as they provide the catering. We had a few menu options for Hors D'oeuvres to choose from. We tried a few of the options we were really looking forward to, but the fact we had to look up what every single item was should have been a red flag. Don't get me wrong, these people are professionally trained and specialize in French food. But to be honest... I hated it. FH wouldn't touch half of it. And there was. So. Much. Goat. Cheese. All in all, the food was just too upscale and meant for the upperclass people that live on the beach. I come from a simple redneck town and we tend to enjoy much simpler, cowboy cuisine, and home-y types of food. Not mint leaves and goat cheese.
Basically, I just need some help. Our venue has been really kind and we love our almost-paid-off venue other than the food. I'm trying to send an email to our coordinator to request a menu change, but I just don't know how to word it without feeling like I'm saying "your food sucks, gimme something better."
Help!
As a side note, we cannot ask for an outside caterer and our package does not allow us to have a sit down dinner. This is because the reception area they provide was not made with a sit down in mind. However, food will be passed around constantly until the end of the reception.
