They chose 'Boardwalk Empire' as their theme - what fun! Michael Brooks and I talked about a few ideas for the party - he had asked us to provide some food. I suggested that he have a Bathtub Gin/Punch. He could get a claw foot bathtub, fill it with ice, and place a big silver bucket of punch or a gin drink in the middle of the bathtub - just like they did in prohibition. I also suggested a signature drink could be served in teacups - a sure fire way of hiding your alcoholic beverage from the cops!
At Cape Creations Catering, we decided to do a Cuban Cigar Station. Our 'cigars' were our signature Pulled pork and collard green eggrolls served with bbq sauce. What a hit! We set up a lovely little station, using old timey radios as risers and lots of cigar boxes. One of our staff members, Sam, dressed as a cigarette girl, and walked around serving the 'cigars' to guests.
Our eggrolls are always popular with our guests - now perhaps we can include the tablescape and make the Cuban Cigar Station a regular on our menus!
