We booked with Upohar due to their unique vegetarian/vegan options and flavorful recipes. Our tasting was fantastic, even mid-pandemic. We were able to speak with the owner throughout the whole process and she made us feel welcome and heard.

It was a pleasure working with Sri, Stephanie, and their team! We had so many compliments on our food and many guests told us it was the best wedding food they ever had (and we agree)!

We knew that our dream menu would blend food from both our cultural backgrounds, both Peruvian and Pennsylvania Dutch/Mennonite. We had no idea that when we brought this unusual idea to Sri that they would more than deliver. Sri developed a beautiful menu to seamlessly blend the two together and was extremely knowledgeable about a variety of Peruvian dishes.
