After teaching culinary school for over 15 years, I am nearing retirement and don’t want to sit still.

Instead, I have decided to do small, elegant in home dinner parties for people who want a unique experience.

The Dinner Party Experience is my chance to share how much I love to put on a fancy dinner party. Pulling out the fancy dishes, setting amusing tablescapes, creating an impeccable menu and delivering it all in an incredible evening of fun, conversation and food; putting on a fabulous meal everyone enjoys.

Setting “fancy tables,” serving delightful food over several tempting courses, using fine china and other rarely used tableware to bring back an elegance that has disappeared from out dining rooms are all aspects of fine dining that often go ignored. Imagine:  Using table cloths and cloth napkins, warm towels at the beginning, finger bowls when needed. The elegance of time gone by updated for today’s enjoyment. We do the experience, you sit back and enjoy.

You can’t get service like this out. We bring the total experience into your home, transforming your table into a gourmands escape for the evening. Sometimes the best way to dine out,  is to dine in.

I aim for:

• The appreciation of the finer things
• The appreciation of the beauty around us
• The details that make the difference
• Enjoying the experience and making it memorable for you and your guests.
