Black Pearl Catering

In a time when many businesses shut down, several have stepped up and adapted to the challenging times. #covid-19I discovered Black Pearl on social media and loved the idea of family meals delivered. They are normally a full service catering company but have adjusted to meal delivery during this time. Lucky for me!I've always been a fan of meal delivery services but not typically cooked options as they are pricey. Black Pearl catering has good prices and great food. $40 for a family meal which feeds six adults making it roughly $7/meal. (Thanks for making that distinction-its often implied 2 adults 2 kids). Delivery included! I found the portion to be lacking, there could be more meat. I'm not a huge meat person but found it challenging to make 6 adult portions I'd say it's more like 4 portions which is ~$10/meal with free delivery. Still a bargain!My first order was chicken coq au vin + roasted garlic rice, and beef + broccoli. The beef and broccoli was so delicious!! They used short rib instead of the typical sliced beef and the sauce had hints of ginger that I just loved. Great take on the Chinese classic. The chicken on the other hand I hated. The chicken came on the bone which I know adds flavor when cooking but really just made it horribly difficult to eat once covered in gravy. And wings? Is there even meat on those things? Again, the meat portion was lacking and I didn't find many vegetables although it had mushrooms and carrots in it. Not something I'd order again. Talking to one of my coworkers, they too have used Blackpearl recently and said the kids loved the pizza kit. I'd definitely recommend Black Pearl catering. Maybe they will continue to offer family meals if not, consider them for your next event catering needs.

Excellent! The food was over the top, as we the service. They were so easy to work with from start to finish. It's the only part of the planning that never worried me! I highly recommend Black Pearl!
