Gabe's Downtown Catering

On a snow day last week, I received a phone call from Michelle Pethel, the catering coordinator of Gabe's Downtown Louisiana Bistro to invite me to come out for a tasting of their food on the weekend.

While Villa Rica, GA sounded quite far, it is actually a rather pleasant drive on I-20. We drove the 26 miles from our house in Smyrna to downtown Villa Rica free of traffic on Saturday morning. There were still snow on the road side but it was quite an easy drive.

The restaurant was cozy and Michelle offered us a wide range of food for the tasting:

(1) Cajun Egg Rolls and Mini Crab Cake as appetizers
(2) Goat Cheese Salad
(3) Gumbo

(4) Lobster Bisque (served in a bread bowl)

(5) Seafood Etouffee as entree

Everything we ate was so delicious and we finished everything! Michelle told us that all the food are freshly made as the chef do not believe in using anything frozen in his cooking. They also tried to source their ingredients locally which is a huge plus!

I absolutely love the food at Gabe's Downtown! If you are looking for a caterer who can provide you with something different than a typical wedding menu, Gabe's Downtown is the place to go!

Even though they are located in West Atlanta, they do travel all around town for weddings. Please take a look at their flexible catering packages on their website which starts at $15.00 per person to $50.00 per person. I hope you don't get too hungry!
