Supper Club The Inaugural Voyage

First and foremost, I have to send a shout out to absolutely everyone who attended the first Brilliant Meal Supper Club last night.  I almost missed my own party due to a terrible migraine and being unable to treat it with anything stronger than Tylenol and a dark room.  What happened as a result of my not being able to micromanage everything, was nothing short of brilliance.  Every single person who came was amazing.  From helping in the prep, to mixing the drinks, to serving and pouring the wine to cleaning up and making sure my stove was streak-free.  It was literally a Brilliant Meal.  The food was good, but the people were spectacular.  And that's what it is really all about.  Thank you all! Bravo!

For those of you who couldn't make it, we hope you can next time!

What makes me the happiest is that the second meal was already being discussed as the coffee was being poured at the first. The second supper club is tentatively planned for September 19.  More details will follow.    Any suggestions are more than welcome.  Place and theme are open.  Please make comments here so we can all see them.

Let's keep this going!
Cheers!

First Supper Club Menu: French

After much agonizing, I have settled on a menu for our first supper club dinner.  It will be a french inspired coursed meal.  There will be lots of food, but the portions will be small.  Still, something to remember when planning meals for that day.  Might I suggest yogurt for lunch? 

Currently the menu is:
Appetizers and Cocktails
Onion Soup
Beef Bourguignon
Salad
Profiteroles
Coffee/Tea

I hope this helps with your wine selections.  Appetizers start at 6 pm.  If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know.  Can't wait to see everyone!
