I think I'd add a different chicken dish. To me, chicken parm, tortellini and ravioli are all too similar. Maybe a chicken marsala or something like that?
Maybe even pasta fagioli, that's a great dish for vegetarians.
And if it were my menu, I'd nix the toasted ravioli and keep the friend calimari.
@SuperKate: Thanks! While I knew the tortellini and ravioli were similar, I wouldn't normally put chicken parm in that category! I'll look at the other chicken dishes on his menu.
And LOL, my fiance and I are going back and forth about the appetizers... we only want one fried item, but I LOVE toasted ravioli and he's partial to calimari. Currently I'm winning, but it may change!
@toshella: I would go with the ravioli. Calamari is what I prefer but it is very rarely done right (often chewy).
@toshella: there's nothing italian in that menu...:D
its Italian American. Cheap dishes immigrants started to make back in the day. A lot of it became popular in the 50's.
That all sounds delicious to me! You have a variety of appetizers, a red sauce dish, cream based dish, vegetarian options...

Hello! We've been trying to decide on menu choices for our spring wedding, which is catered by a local Italian restaurant. The coordinator sent his suggestions, but a lot of it sounds too heavy and I'm worried there aren't enough side dishes. I've written out his original menu along with our substitutions - what do you guys think? Is it enough food? Will it satisfy everyone? BTW, we have 125 guests and some vegetarians.
Thanks in advance!
