Thank you for reviewing my proposal! I hope you enjoy what I've written. This French leaning dinner menu features bright, seasonal ingredients and bold flavors to help you all celebrate a birthday. I'm flexible, if there is something listed you don't care for I'm happy to work with you to get every bite just right.
I like to start with a cocktail and hors d'oeuvres. The Last Word is one of my favorite cocktails and will do great to kick off this menu. The hors d'oeuvres are really fun and have a good variety to suite all the guests. Dinner begins with a hand made, fresh pasta course, the lobster can easily be omitted for guests that don't eat fish. I've written a choice of two entrees; the duck dish is beautiful and shows off some of my favorite seasonal produce. I've written roasted cauliflower for the vegetarian diners, it's one of my personal favorites dishes. I'd transition with a small bite as a cheese course and an elegant dessert showcasing my favorite dark chocolate from Madagascar.
The photos attached are a peek at some of my work but are not specific to this menu. Hopefully you can gather my plating style, aesthetic and attention to detail. Along with the food I provide printed menus, cookware, ceramics and table service. I'm also happy to help select wines, if you'd like. Let me know if you have any questions.
