CH hour is 1.5 hours and will include 5 stations: Tuscany - cheese, veggies, dips, fruit, crackers, etc. Can't remember what else Italian - All I remmeber is fried calimari, muscles, clams. There's more but I can't remember Pasta - lobster ravioli, penne alla vodka with peas (yay!! I get soo happy when I see peas!!) (no prochuitto), rigatoni primavera or something. Once more there is more but I can't remember... oh and garlic bread Carving - steak, chicken, some kind of glazed ham or something Fahita - yay!! Shrimp, steak, chicken, with all the fixings and also tri colored tortilla chips AND the BEST part... a patron bar with ice luge!!! There will be other liquors there too!!!

Re: Royalton menu!!!
Ahhh.. what was I supposed to ask about the farwell table?? I can't remember. BUT I am going back there on the 8th for the tasting... so I will put it on my list of things to ask about.
I got your email... and I thought I responded... but I guess not. Sometimes I think about doing things and then don't do them... but I believe I did them because I thought about it and I get all confused. Sorry!!! I'm a ditz!
I got the cocoa. BUT THANK YOU TREMENDOUSLY for trying to help me out!! YOU ARE SUPER SWEET!!!! I <3 You!!!

HAHA!!! I'm off too!!! That means me and you can REALLY party it up!! I think others will have work!! OH and don't forget I think the MONDAY is John's 'SPECIAL' day!!! hahahahahaha!!!!
The patron bar goes with the fajita station!! haha!! But I asked for other liquors to be there. I hear they do jello shots.. and as you've learned... it's not a Kerri party without jello shots... so I'm going to ask about that next week. I don't do regular shots so the jello is my fill in!!! haha!!

Re: Royalton menu!!!
I know it does.. BUT he ONLY has work that day then he's off for the rest of the week. So it's no sooo horrific.
GREAT call on the flavored Jello Shots!! I didn't write that down, nor did I think of saying it!! haha!! I'm noting that down on my list!! I just made a to do list that's soooo long!!! I've been soo relaxed because I feel like I have soo much time. I think I live in a bubble the majority of the time!!
The pear vodka sounds AMAZING!!!! I'll give them options of using either, watermelon, pear strawberry cherry pineapple
ANY of those and I'M SOLD!!!!

Re: Royalton menu!!!
So, they surprised us at our wedding with flavored shots with sorbet chasers and they were really yummy and a huge hit. Not sure if you ladies had those at any of the other weddings but go for it. We also have a fun, drinking crowd and the group was impressed!!
Also, I know you know this already but the food is amazing!! We had the chilean sea bass done teriyaki style (chef recommended it) and people who dont eat fish were raving. We als had veal chops which were outstanding and even the chicken was the best i ever had at reception.
For the cake, we also did red velvet, but they wound up making the filling a strawberry shortcake filling. it was basically buttercream and strawberries. They did this because i wanted half the cake to be strawberry shortcake but the chef said it wouldnt hold. When my hubby fed it to me for the cake cuttini literally stopped and looked at him and was like, 'this cake is amazing!' try it if you like strawberries.

Re: Royalton menu!!!
Patron luge..thats great. We had patron shots flowing like crazy at our wedding.
Also, the shots with the sorbet on the dance floor are still being talked about..even my mom who doesn't drink did those shots.
We did the chilean sea bass too, teryaki style and everyone loved it. We also did a strip steak that was to die for.
One of the pass arounds that people LOVED which I didn't of course get to try was the coconut shrimp. They said it was with a pina colada sauce or something.
Our cake was the best anyone has ever had. We did chocolate cake with raspberry filling...
Trying to remember what else people raved about. The calamari I heard was excellent. Tira Misu (sp?) at the desset bar...We had a raw bar that was to die for and sushi bar as well that people loved.
You can't go wrong...They made my day sooo easy it was the best wedding ever..I wish I could attend one there.
