Chef Trish Taylor will be impressing partygoers with her unique and delicious food, offered in a grand buffet style. Items on the menu include brie and raspberry wrapped in phyllo, apple with fig jam wrapped in prosciutto, endive with mascarpone, currants and toasted almonds, halibut fillet meuniere baked in cream with fresh herbs and lemon, and beaufort topped petite tenderloin filet wrapped in bacon with wild mushroom demi-glace. The Grappone Conference Center sources much of its food from local farms and offers fresh and organic options on the menu; not only does it taste delicious, but it’s promoting the farm to table relationship that so many small businesses rely on to survive.
