The menu was filled with amazing displays and culinary action stations.
Our displayed station was a concept our Executive Chef had. This concept was to display ‘shorties’ – small plates that give a quick glimpse in to the food item – within a line of greenery. It gave the illusion that the items were sprouting out of the ground.
Located in the walk-in cooler, where guests would be offered a coat before entering, was a culinary action station. Guests were able to build their own crudo or ceviche.
