One of my goals in moving to Brooklyn was to start a supper club. So mere days after moving into my new place, I kicked things off with a dinner party for friends old and new.
Co-hosting was my graphic designer/photographer sister Lauren, whose eye for detail (and grocery lugging skills) helped make this party not only tasty, but beautiful. Check out her shots of the dinner below, and stay tuned for more supper club updates!
Menu:
Gin, lillet blanc and basil cocktail
Homemade, spicy heirloom pickles – carrot, cauliflower, and radish
Arugula, orange and fennel salad with lemon-ginger vinaigrette
Grilled pineapple
Sweet and spicy grilled shrimp
Baked mole chicken
Butternut squash, black bean and coconut rice - Inspired by Tartelette
Asian slaw
Blackened hazelnut haricots verts and mangetout - Inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi
Passion fruit custard with red wine glaze and toasted nuts**
Coffee and chocolate ganache birthday cake**
**Both desserts were made by our incredible friend, pastry chef Molly Marzalek-Kelly, of Baked NYC
Looks absolutely amazing Carly! Keep me posted on future culinary adventures— would love to help cook and (more importantly) eat!
