International cuisine from We Love Rustic Catering We've picked out a handful of show stopping dishes that we know and like to cook all served with a number of complimentary side dishes. We love the buzz and theatre when a beautifully presented platter is brought to the table. A few "oohs and aghhs' make us happy. Pick out something you like or tell us what you like and we can workshop some menu ideas to come up with your ultimate banquet.
