We've been rather busy...
We had a fantastic wedding over the weekend! It took place at the Metropolitan Building in Long Island City. It's a beautiful space with distressed floors, blue walls, a beamed ceiling, and endless amounts of character. And Poppies and Posies added their magic touch of classic vintage to bring everything together. The couple was gorgeous and calm and they emitted the perfect energy for their guests to have the time of their lives.
Fortunate for us, the couple wanted to the food to be a true focal point of the evening. Well, ask and you shall receive.
For cocktail hour, our gorgeous and spunky servers pass around:
Tenderloin Crostini
black angus, blue cheese butter, baby spinach
Wild Mushroom Tart
mushroom confit, tomato compote, crème fraiche, gruyere
Hudson Valley Camembert Crouton
truffle honey, cracked black pepper, ficelle
Sliders
cheddar, pickles, special sauce
For the first course, we served:
White Bean Soup
fennel, crispy sausage, sage, roquette, basil oil
And for the main course, we offered a choice (a very difficult choice) between:
Pan Seared Halibut
spaghetti squash, crème fraiche,, mint, lemon, garlic chips
Braised Beef Shortribs
cauliflower, brussel sprout, red wine miso
The food was a hit! Nothing is better than watching guests scrape their plates clean.
And the wedding cakes (there were 5!), provided by the extremely talented folks of Nine Cakes were absolutely stunning.
The wedding photographer was kind enough to snap some food photos for us -- and I promise to post as soon as we receive them! Until then, you'll just have to use your imagination. Just make sure you have a napkin handy in case of accidental drooling.
