Description
In everyday French life, the Bistro is woven into the pattern of meals and celebrations that little neighborhood restaurant where they know who you are, greet you warmly, and serve you satisfying, approachable, and interesting food that changes with the seasons and defines regional cuisine. American cooking continues to transform along with the many nationalities and cultures that have made this country their home. The early influences of British, French, Spanish, and Dutch cuisine, combined with the traditions of African, Chinese, Italian, Polish, and Jewish cultures, began what we think of as our food. As our culture expanded, the flavors of Asian, Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, South American, and Caribbean cooking also enlivened American fare. These changes, combined with our insistence on new flavor combinations and an increasing interest in healthy cooking, have created a rich and varied culinary environment. Menu selection should be submitted to the banquet office at least two weeks in advance. No more than two entrée selections can be chosen. Exact counts are due for each entrée. On split menus, exact counts are due for each entrée; and place cards must be provided and set up by host to signal who receives which entrée. Minimum charge will be 100% of the guaranteed number. The guaranteed number is required to be submitted 72 working hours prior to the function. If no guarantee is received prior to the function, then the original estimate of attendance will become the guarantee. Prices are subject to change.
