COMPLIMENTS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

Thanks a million for everything you did to make our staff welcome day flow so well! We really appreciated working with you to bring an event such as this to our staff. Please also pass on my thanks for Megan who was very accommodating of our last minute catering needs. - Janet Walke, Staff Capability Leader, People and Safety
I, on the behalf of all who attended our Reunion on Saturday night would like to thank you and all the wonderful staff who worked behind the scenes and the staff front of house for their superb service. It far exceeded all our expectations. Everything that was organised, planned for and seamlessly and there were extras added in over and above what we had planned and paid for. A huge thank you to you all, and I personally will be recommending the Awapuni Racecourse and Creative Catering to friends, family and work colleagues. Thanks so much again - Debbie Williams
Our day was amazing! Your team did absolutely fantastic work. Leigh was absolutely amazing. She really looked after the head table and bar. It all ran seamlessly. Thank you and your team so much for everything. - Christine (Wedding)

Thank you so much for your enthusiasm to work with us over several months to make the evening a special and memorable occasion.

 We were delighted with the venue, the menu options, the food and the white linen service.

 We were so impressed by your ability to cater for our very diverse range of dietary needs and preferences, and the kitchen team did a fabulous job of preparing and presenting all the courses, from appetitsers to deserts.

 feedback from those who attended was ‘glowing’ – one of the gourmet’s who attended said it was the best buffet meal they’d ever had.

 We will certainly recommend Creative Catering at RACE Awapuni in the future.
