Below are several sample menus of events we have done in the past, all of which have had excellent reviews. A few menus are for antipasto-like buffets, the way I like to eat. I have found that this sort of presentation gives the events a more "homey" feel, creating a more relaxed, and well "satiated" ambiance. As always we would be glad to create a special menu to suit your individual tastes or dietary needs. $20.00 Olive salad with Mozzarella & Lupini Beans Pancetta & Caramelized Onion Flatbread Potato
