From sumptuous soups and starters to American classics and international entrées, each dining selection is skillfully presented as guests watch with anticipation. Heirloom Tomato Soup is served in a special kettle and is slowly poured over a garnish of heirloom tomatoes, mozzarella and basil dressed with a touch of olive oil while Sweet Potato Tortelloni – stuffed with homemade spice-roasted mascarpone cheese – is drizzled with melted brown butter before being topped with sage and freshly grated Amaretto biscotti. Classic favorites also receive a gourmet twist. Macaroni & Cheese is enhanced with Fontina cheese and spicy chorizo while Beer Battered Fish and Chips are served with a spritz bottle of malt vinegar to allow for more flavor distribution.
For meat lovers, Signature Steaks offer the highest quality cuts of certified Angus Beef, each hand-carved and grilled to order. Guests can choose between a mouth-watering 16-ounce New York Strip, 16-ounce Ribeye or 10-ounce Filet Mignon. Each is topped with the guest’s choice of a homemade butter – ranging from Black Truffle to Burgundy & Shallot – to serve as a flavorful counterpoint.
For those seeking an authentic international experience, an elaborate presentation of Tandoori Chicken Curry – complete with steamed |
