Wedding Catering Cornwall - Global Cuisine

The Melting Pot

Themed cuisine is big news in wedding world. Bring an international flavour to your celebration with these delectable dishes...

Whether it’s Arabian mint tea and spicy falafels served on silver platters or a Cornish pasty supper washed down with blackberry mead, the wedding menu is increasingly becoming an opportunity to celebrate both a sense of culture and place. Your menu of choice might signify your favourite takeaway, the exotic destination where the question was popped or the very soil on which you utter ‘I do’. Whatever form of cuisine gets your digestive juices flowing, make your wedding menu a further – and utterly delicious – expression of your personal tastes.

But if you simply cannot decide on a culinary theme, don’t fret. Consider setting up a series of food stations around your venue and let your guests graze on an eclectic selection of nibbles. You may opt for a Japanese sushi bar in one corner, a Mexican grill in another and a barbecue full of fresh Cornish fish and steaks outside; not only does this provide a cuisine to satisfy all tastes, it is a highly effective way of encouraging people to mingle.

To whet your appetites, the catering queens at The Round Kitchen have devised a series of menus inspired by the foodie traditions of four influential destinations. Here’s a taster.

CORNWALL
From hearty pasties to fresh seafood, from lip-smacking ice cream to sweet saffron buns, our spectacular county is responsible for some fairly spectacular foodstuffs. With the sea breeze at your hair and the Cornish soil at your feet, celebrate the sensational setting of your union by tucking into the delights of the Duchy.
