Other Infomation
Seeing your post I immediately thought that this style of Japanese Menu would be prefect because it is incredibly conducive for large parties especially with a variety of dietary restrictions. I just did a dinner party with these same dietary restrictions that was about the same size recently and it was a huge success. I know this might not be exactly what you had in mind but I'm also assuming the whole party isn't vegetarian or gluten free. I've been a chef for over 20 years at the best restaurants in NYC and DC. I also have over 4 years catering at the highest level being the private chef to the Saudi Ambassador at his residence. For your 14 person Birthday dinner doing a three course buffet would be the most enjoyable especially if we have a variety of palates. This Style of dinner also creates a very large selection options which also satisfies a variety of people but also creates a great party conversation and atmosphere. The service will be banquete/ family style which greatly reduce the amount of plates, silverware, waste, and clean up needed. I'm open to any suggestions, ideas, or tweaks you have just message be through the Table @ Home platform. If you need any assistance with a wine pairing I'm also a level one Sommelier Thanks - Chef Kern
