Sample Menus

A high-end annual fundraising gala for a local non-profit. The client was interested in a buffet, but was worried it wouldn’t seem upscale. We proposed a station-style layout with different items available at scattered locations throughout the event. Additionally, several were action stations were included to allow attendees to further customize their selections.

A summertime open house on a rooftop patio. Prior events by the client in the space had always been a barbecue. This time, they wanted something more creative that would appeal to ‘foodies’ and ‘non-foodies’ alike.

Do you need an excuse to have a group of friends over for dinner? The hosts are looking for a fancy evening to show off the renovations to their house. Being dessert aficionados, they were excited to add an extra dessert course of small bites to extend their evening together.

A rave-worthy birthday party for the husband, who despite having spent many years in Colorado, still has a big part of his heart left behind in Texas. The inspiration for this plated dinner party was “Refined Texas Ranch”

“Something for your Sweetheart – The Gift of Gastronomy” A cooking class to teach attendees how to prepare a four-course meal for their sweetheart on Valentine’s Day. Menu items had to be attainable for the home cook, and the ability to execute the timing successfully is important for a successful experience when they repeat it at home.

The couple met over a plate of Chicken and Waffles. They are foodies, and were looking for a slightly more modern approach that wouldn’t alienate their less-adventurous family members and would be upscale enough to match the rest of their wedding plans.

The client is rolling out a new series of products targeted towards more specific markets, and they’re hosting a VIP client reception to make the formal introduction. They are decorating different areas of the office with different themes, and they’d like a finger-friendly menu to match each of the themes.

An outdoor meet-and-greet for a gathering of non-profit board members and executives. Hosted right at the start of summer on gorgeous grounds, the host was looking for an upscale picnic-style reception with light fresh flavors.
