Menu: Dinner Party - Soir de Citron

This menu was for on our the "The Sky's The Limit" Supper Club dinner parties we hosted. The theme, as the title suggests, was lemon. It makes for a lovely spring meal. I have left off one item from the menu: dessert. We served up Cherie's great-grandmother Amelia Olsen's Lemon Ice-Box Cake, the recipe for which is a guarded family secret and I don't feel I have the privilege to share this family treasure. However, I strongly suggest a lemon sorbet!

Menu: Dinner Party - All Things Tomato

This dinner party menu was crafted by our good friends Robin and Michael Abrams as part of our supper club. I'd recommend this as a late summer, early autumn mean when tomatoes are the ripest and the widest variety. The meal is capped by a lovely and unusual savory cheesecake dessert - unusual and worth trying!

Menu: Dinner Party - Summer Flame

This dinner party menu was crafted by Sameer and Beth, erstwhile members of The Sky's The Limit supper club. Sameer loves to grill. Hindu or not, the man knows how to serve up a cow! So, they built a menu around these great chipotle ribs, which are worth building a dinner around.
