The evening was a splendid celebration of mid-winter for the Club and also of Bastille Day for the venue and their French staff. The atmosphere and service were excellent and enjoyed by all.
We had a selection of three entrees’ each with the soup being served in a demitasse cup, with a small serving of quiche and a separate salad.
For the mains, people had a selection from Beef Bourguignon, Chicken Champenoise, or Whaherou Cerole – all were served with veggies and were very tasty.
For the dessert we each had a trio of petite fours’: lemon pie with meringue on top, a macaron and a lemon Brulee served in a spoon.
Your committee has sent a special note of thanks on behalf of everyone present to Chef Vero and her staff for staging a very enjoyable dinner indeed.
