U.S. Embassy Cocktail Party


Last night we catered a cocktail party for the Public Affairs section. The guests were mainly reporters from Mexican TV and Newspapers, so we doubled the amount of food! From our experience, reporters arrive hungry, and last night was no different.

The host served some wonderful 2006 Mondavi that we shared in the kitchen after the gig - now that is the type of cient we love!
