We had a grand meeting and Shan just dropped the biggest bomb on us ever! Instead of a sit-down dinner, it’s going to be a buffet! That meant we had to call up caterers and look through their proposals. I spent the entire day just waiting on the phone for the people at the other end of the answering line to pick up. What’s with service these days? And Geri, How Ngean and Caleb haven’t been doing anything but eating cake. Cake with Madagascar – bourbon Vanilla and Valrhona chocolate ganache no less! They had better leave me a slice! GRRRRR!!!!
After hours on the phone, we finally settled the menu:
Deluxe open faced canapés and finger sandwiches (pre-cocktail) :-creamy egg mayonnaise, tuna mousse with bell pepper, cherry tomato salsa
Cold Appetisers:-iceberg lettuce with shallots and vinaigrette dressing, asparagus wrapped with turkey breast, prawn coulis with mango salsa
Stall:-chicken kebabs
Hot Favourites:-grilled dory fillet with parsley cream sauce, ebi prawn with mayo dip, mussel au gratin with parmesan cheese, steamed broccoli with almond butter sauce, lyonnaise potatoes, golden seafood croquette, spaghetti aglio olio with mushrooms, pillaf rice with seafood
Sweet Temptations:-deluxe fresh fruit in glass, tiramisu in glass (yay, we are still keeping the tiramisu), mini chocolate fondue with fresh strawberries, kiwi cubes, snowy cream puffs and marshmallows and assorted deluxe French pastries - mini apple crumble, assorted tartlets, chocolate éclairs
Beverage:-fruit punch and pink guava
Menu B wasn’t chosen because Shan and Praveen didn’t like the Japanese corner, and the carving station for not many people would eat lamb and beef and everything else seemed the same.
