Double Birthday Party Smash in Los Altos

Looks like a Fantastic Menu, if I don't say so myself!
Our service staff is anxious to serve you good food

Tuna Tartare, my number one item at many, many events that I do

Petite Lobster Rolls
Catered a "double birthday" party last night for my regular clients' Alex & Cathy in Los Altos last night. It was so fun...they had a terrific band set up near the pool, the outdoor fireplace was roaring and the party guests were dancing and eating good food. This makes for a recipe of good times and wonderful memories. I always get inspired by the party guests enjoying themselves. The menu above had 9 savory items and 3 dessert items, a big menu for a big birthday smash!
