Hors d 'oeurves...grilled Shrimp and Brie en Croute....

Wow! I have been asked to cater a staff party for Premier Events at the Vine Bar in Hollywood.   My friend Monica who owns the Vine Bar has asked me to put together a spread of hors d’oeuvres for this celebration. Our menu is an array of spicy sushi rolls to grilled Zucchini wrapped Vanilla Goat Cheese with Radicchio and baby Arugula but I think the Chicken Wings with a Whiskey B.B.Q sauce will be a hit for sure… I will definitely let you know how this one turns out!

Happy Birthday Mr. Tartakovsky!

January 17, 2008

What an honor to cook for Mr. Tartakovsky and his family in celebration of his Birthday.  I have to admit that I was a little nervous cooking for this Emmy award winning Animation Director.  But all was well after I saw the satisfied smiles from family and friends enjoying some appetizers; grilled shrimp with my signature Roasted Garlic Lemon sauce and a Greek Olive Tapenade on Crostini.  It also looked as though everyone was truly enjoying the delicious cuts of their Ribeye steaks.  This was an exciting night for everyone including the dogs that enjoyed all the aromas coming from the kitchen.

Radford Hall – Sherman Oaks, California

A true inspiration of life at Radford Hall… genuine people with a genuine need for Flavors at this business conference held to raise money for a private organization.

The Texas roots of this Chef were brought out when creating the menu for this event.  We served Tri Tip cover with a Sun dried Tomato Gravy, an exotic and very tasty mix of Pomegranate Juice and Chipotle Peppers smothered chicken, Roasted Rutabagas mixed with French Green Beans our very popular Organic Brown Rice with Leek and Tomato. Oh, and let’s not forget about the mixed Berry Cobbler with biscuit crust that our guests could not get enough of.

This was a splendid night of food and celebration for all.
