Birthday Dinner Party Celebration, Marilyn and Tony Freeman

May 04, 2015

Catering for Private Dinner Parties is a fantastic and rewarding experience for me. It is even more special when I get to return to cook for such lovely people as Marilyn and Tony, and of course their equally lovely family and friends. The first time was for Marilyn's Birthday and was one of my first 7 course menus in June 2013. The most recent being this weekend for Tony's Celebration on Primrose Day, which also happens to be my own Birthday! ;) I catered two other 7 Course Dinner Parties this weekend and so it was a superb few days of delicious and delightful Dinner Party Food :) Marilyn had 12 guests round the table so it was a big challenge to get so many plates of food out but I had a lovely spacious kitchen to work in and beautiful helper with me and so the evening went really smoothly.
