The Very Best Catering in Northern Virginia
Catering By Teatime at Old Town Hall Fairfax VA
How gorgeous is that salad?!?! Nothing more refreshing and
delicious at a warm summer wedding reception than Ruth’s House Salad.
This time we mix it up a bit using Mixed Greens, Tomato, Scallion,
Dried Cranberry, Toasted Pecans – and instead of our traditional
Gorgonzola Cheese we instead used Shaved Parmesan in our signature
Balsamic Vinaigrette.
Plated First Course: Ruth’s House Salad |
We recently catered a wedding reception at the lovely Old Town Hall in Fairfax City, VA www.fairfaxva.gov
The party got started with a selection of wines and beers as well
as several chilled Cider offerings, a welcome refreshment on a warm
summer night, bright autumn evening, or any time of year.
Old Town Hall, Fairfax VA |
The main dining/ballroom of Old Town Hall has beautiful wood
floors, wood beams, and large windows bringing in lots of light during
the daylight hours. The bride and groom were going for a rustic look,
with burlap runners and simple floral centerpieces.

The appetizers
featured Manchego Tappas (a risotto cake with Manchego cheese melted
inside, Assorted Bruschetta, and a Kosher Style Anti Pasti
Arrangement using only Beef Cured Meats as well as Marinated Vegetables
and Assorted Cheeses and Crackers.
Antipasti Platters during Cocktail Hour |
The main buffet style menu not only featured Ruth’s House Salad,
we also served Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Garlic Roasted Red Bliss Potatoes,
Carved Steamship Round of Beef, Fresh Fruit Arrangement, and a Pasta
Salad of Bow Ties, Blanched Snow Peas, Sun Dried Tomato and Fresh
Dill. I often suggest a cool pasta option during warmer months. During cooler months we can suggest warmer pasta offerings, particularly our Linguine with Sun Dried Tomato-Cilantro-Parmesan.

Keeping with the simple and rustic theme, the bride and groom
wanted a simply decorated wedding cake as well. Ruth served her classic
Yellow Butter Cake with Fresh Strawberry Filling iced in a non
traditional style.
