"Dear Chef Ballard, my apologies for taking so long in expressing my thanks to you and your colleagues for the great service you provided us at the occasion of my daughter's wedding. I am grateful for the quiet, professional way you tended to our needs. You anticipated our needs before we even thought of them. You made the event so much more enjoyable and I received many complimentary comments from our guests. Our sincerest thanks,"

"Chef Ballard, We cannot thank you enough for being such a gracious host and willing to serve such a sumptuous banquet at such an un-godly hour of the morning. The retired teachers of Peru Central School have been looking forward to this event since last year. It's been a real hit and a joyous way to start the school year for us "old war horses" who have twinge of sadness on this day-missing the kids-but on the other hand, thoroughly enjoying their hard earned freedom! May your eventual retirement be just as joyous, you have earned it! Sincerely,"

Ann & Lynn Wilke

"Dear Ballard, Many, many thanks for such a delicious, plentiful, and novel food feast. My guests are still complimenting about how moist and beautifully seasoned your food was. You can be sure the next time I think "party", I'll thank Ballard! Thanks for your recommendations, and your gracious staff, Best Wishes,"

Thanks so much for accommodating us on such a short notice for our daughter's special day.

Danielle & Anthony B.

Thank you so very much for the beautiful and sumptuous spread, and at such an early hour! It definitely made the party. And what a great way to cheer those "still in the trenches" on, and for old friends to gather and see each other - many who had been out of touch for years.

Anne & Lynn W.

We can't begin to tell you how outstanding the food and service was at our wedding. You really helped make our day all we hoped it would be. Best of luck.

Leah & Joe P.
