The Tuscan Platter Wedding Menu for 2012

All main courses come from our brick oven and are served Tuscan platter (family) style.
The platters are passed up and down the tables and guests take as much or as little as they want.

Our wedding banquet menu is inspired by local Vancouver Island ingredients. Here is a sample wedding menu.
