It began with a lot of shopping and chopping - and a big smile.
What a wonderfully lively, delicious, romantic evening!
Guest quote:
"We thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Lovely atmosphere, exquisite food and delightful dining companions." -Andrea and Jim A.
The Plant at Kyle's Chef-in-residence Steve Couch prepared a delicious pulpo gallego (octopus) for the initial taste of the evening.
Upon arrival, our 24 guests were each offered a welcome beverage by the host (me). They starting chatting with other guests many who were meeting for the first time. Our evening was off to a great start as many unexpected common connections kept emerging. There were many smiles, much laughter, and a great mood.
Martha and Jamie Kinscherff, The Plant's associates, site managers, and next-door neighbors, provided a lovely musical accompaniment for the beginning of the evening.

The evening weather perfectly complimented the cuisine and conversation, all exquisite!
Chef Steve and Chef Eric created, plated, and served the happy guests: peripatetic.
