With most of kids out of classes for spring break, this week was perfect for our client throwing their son a bar mitzvah reception to come in and taste some of the foods they will be serving.
Passed hors d’oeuvre included gazpacho d’oro shooter, American mini hamburger bites, lacy potato pancakes and steamed vegetable dumplings. The American burger bite was the young man’s favorite, causing his eyes to light up and an infectious smile to spread across his face.
A bar mitzvah is a jewish boys right of passage. The menu is a serious reflection of this transition. On the buffet, decorated with cds of classic rock greats and new music sensations were a number of delicious selections. Boneless chicken breast brochette put a twist on typical chicken kabobs. Marinated in red thai curry, lemon grass thai basil and sesame oil, they were a huge hit. Tender beef back ribs, hot smoked Atlantic salmon and farmer’s market salad filled with mixed greens, fingerling potatoes, green beans, summer tomatoes and cuted olives tossed in a dijon red wine vinaigrette.
Our guests finished off their meal with a tasty plate of warm chocolate chip cookies and a sampling of chocolate cake iwth vanilla buttercream and Melrose Diner butter cake.
As a caterer, the opportunity to be a part of an important moment in peoples lives is why we are in thi business. We love seeing the happiness people express during these moments in someones life.
