Cocktail Party for the U.S. Embassy


Last night we did a catering for the U.S. Embassy, at a home in Lomas de Chapultepec. They contracted us for 50 people, but then about 70 showed up. At least we had a big menu and didn't run out of food! It was a fun crowd, and there was a marimba band from Veracruz to set the party mood.

This party was all passed hors d'oeuvres. The Teryaki Beef and Curried Chicken Salad in a Wonton Cup were the favorites of the evening.
