Top Notch Cocktail Party at Community Campus, Portmouth, New Hampshire
Chef Mike, and his team at Community Campus had a fun and busy day putting together a Cocktail Party tonight! We had a top notch dessert display of hand dipped and filled cannoli, dipped strawberries and mini pastries. We wanted to offer something a little different, so we served baked brie, ale fondue and cheddar curds tossed with honey and chilies. We passed appetizers of shaved beef tenderloin, caramelized onions and horseradish on crostini, Asian noodles and tempura shrimp, tomato, mozzarella and basil skewers and open faced Reuben sandwiches. We also served shaved pork tenderloin and apple chutney canapes and Thai chicken skewers with peanut sauce. It was a very successful event!
I’ve been born and bred corporate dining and corporate catering from the very beginning of my career in the Silicon Valley and now, since 2001 in the Boston Metro Area. While working my way up through the ranks, all the experience has led up to my current position as the Corporate Executive Chef for Café Services, based out of Manchester, NH. I have the privilege to be able to utilize creativity, research and technology to dream up our company’s new culinary programs and custom menus for corporate cafeteria clients and bring them to life. Café Services supplies the resources to ensure success of our ever-evolving companywide culinary initiatives and I’m very grateful for the opportunity. Seeing the success of new programs in the field is my motivation. It’s a win win.
