Looking Forward to Cooking at the Vineyard Table Saturday Night for a Private Party

My good friend Kristen Schumacher of Heirloom and I will be catering for a private party tomorrow night. We were highly inspired while writing the menu and we are really looking forward to cooking at the Vineyard Table. It's a phenomenal space if you don't know about it yet, it's near the stadiums off of first on Atlantic street. It's a warm and inviting space- perfect for a reception or wine and food pairing class. You can check it out here at The Vineyard Table. All the wines paired for this event are from the Atlantic Street Artisan Wineries right on site.
Here is the menu for tomorrow night:
