Andrew and Mark rolling at the sushi barWe catered a great party in the backyard of Dr. Jeff Kosoris...for his 50th birthday.... his wife, Susan wanted to do something fun and different...for Waxahachie at least. So we used bamboo folding chairs and square white plates with black folded napkins, and tucked the chopsticks into each place setting. As guests arrived we were rolling sushi and shaking up mandarin martinis, at the bar. After cocktails, almost 70 guests were seated in the backyard and we plated sesame lacquered beef on a bamboo skewer with coconut rice and snow peas in a wonderful mango ginger sauce. The grand finale was a dessert sushi made for us by a great new bakery in Dallas, called Petit Fours Cakes. We thought we had hired an Asian woman to come read tea leaves, but a palm reader showed up instead...oh well, apparently everyone was happy with their fortunes and danced till the wee hours of the morning. As usual, I don't ever have time to take pictures AFTER the party starts, but here are some shots before guests arrived....
