Ran across this 5 year old menu recently. Thought it relevant as it’s still a great representation of my food, and what you get from a party with me.                                  –Apps are playful with sweet and spicy, and there are always two proteins.
-Seasonal produce driven menus.
-Original cuisine and ingredient pairings.
-New and/or unknown items.

The “problem” with this menu is it will never be repeated. There were several ingredients that day that drove this menu in it’s direction. I’m not sure what their dietary preferences were, but it looks like they requested chicken and fish.
