Introducing Sassafras Catering!

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Tricia of Sassafras Catering. She is upbeat, fun and loves to cook! We're excited to have her join the Simply Chic Blog crew and look forward to tips and advice about catering from her.

Let's start with a some Q & A with Tricia to learn more about her.

Q:When did you first realize you loved to cook?

A: "When I was 6 and learned how to make meringues by myself."

Q: How long have you been catering events?

A: "I've worked for other caterers since I was 15, but have been doing it myself for the past 2.5 years."

Q: Describe your style of cooking?
A: "Unique, Southern inspired, healthy and local."


Q: Is there a limit to how may guests you can serve?

A: "No, but we prefer to keep it under 300 to be as personal as possible without sacrificing quality."

Q: What is one of your favorite dishes to serve at a wedding?

A: "Tomato pie. This is a unique southern dish from Lowcountry (coastal region) of South Carolina. It's a savory pie filled with tomatoes and topped with cheese, herbs and carmelized onions."

You can pick up an individual tomato pie every Thursday at Savor Soup House on SW 10th and Alder (across from Jake's Grill). You better come early though- those babies go quick!
