Scrumptious Buffet Dinner
Had the pleasure a couple of weeks ago to cater a winter dinner party for my clients' Besty & Peter in their beautiful home in Hillsborough. Twenty eight guests came in from the cold to wine and dine with each other. I was a fun night and I will have fond memories of it for years to come. Below is the menu
