I believe in simplicity when it comes to hosting gatherings for friends and or family. As a chef, in the past I would over do things, as I said there would be sacks of "confused foods" on the way out the door with my guests and a overflowing fridge with leftovers. Thankfully I learned and now keep things simple. My guests are now greeted with and assortment of Charcuterie and Cheeses thoughtfully displayed for there enjoyment. As to the beverages I offer a Sparkling Wine, Red and a White Wine that differ from what will be served or paired with our meal.
On to the feast next !! Until then Think Good Thoughts & Smile....
simple is truly best, as I always had to be bigger, better etc. like all chefs we do tend do everything overboard, but for very good reasons. Last year and now this year will be very simple, I will do a similar version of you as I did that last year and it was a big hit. Looking forward to your feast ! Lots of good thoughts for you ! xo chefette
