Food was really important to me and my fiance during the wedding planning process. We're both foodies who like to cook, as are most of our friends/family, so it was critical for us that we didn't just have typical "wedding food." After having t...astings with ZHG and Mader's, two Milwaukee catering institutions, we met with Daniel and Maria of Ball 'n Biscuit. Admittedly, our tasting was non-traditional. We met Daniel and Maria at their house where they served us at their dining room table. This might not be the experience that everyone is looking for, but it made us feel great about Ball 'n Biscuit. Sitting in someone's home for your tasting tells you that the food you're eating is truly homemade and made with love. You could taste that in the food we were served. Daniel and Maria fed us hummus, guacamole, salsa, vegan empanadas, rice, corn salad and fish tacos. Everything we ate was OUTSTANDING - perfectly cooked, well-seasoned and fresh. I would've chosen to work with them on food alone, but in addition to their culinary prowess, Daniel and Maria are just really awesome, laid back people who also run an incredibly affordable catering business.
After choosing to work with BnB, the coordination and menu finalization process went very smoothly, as did our wedding reception. I saw Maria for probably 30 seconds and then the cocktail hour and dinner service went off without a hitch. Their servers were super polite and attentive and the overall experience was seamless. I actually forgot they were there, which is great because it meant I felt that I had nothing to worry about.
Overall, I couldn't recommend Ball 'n Biscuit more. Daniel and Maria are lovely, talented people who know how to cook and cater like the best of them. Also, working with BnB is a great way to support a local, small business in Milwaukee!
