Lori and I had the privilege of attending Thomas Caterers' Annual Tasting for their 2013 menu.
Every year Thomas (led by Kelly and Vince Early) adds unique and delicious items to their menu and we
were so excited to attend and try a bite of everything! The presentation is super important when it comes to food - and on this particular night, we were not disappointed!
The tasting took place at D’Amore, which is at the very top
of the Chase Tower. We love
D’Amore and had a great time enjoying the 360 degree views of the city while
sipping Chardonnay and grabbing every delicious hors d’oeuvre that passed us!
Erin of Erin Hession Photography captured some amazing
pictures of the delicious hors d’oeuvres, salads, entrees and desserts. She graciously let us use a few photos
to share with you!

this station perfectly, as the mini pizza box actually took a trip down a
slide for guests to catch at the bottom

Overall, everything was outstanding! We love Thomas Caterers and cannot
wait to continue working with them throughout this year. There were many more offerings that evening and not enough time
to describe them all! We’d like to thank Erin Hession Photography for the
awesome photos and of course Thomas Caterer’s for the opportunity to attend this event! It
was nothing less than extraordinary!
Boldly Yours,
Christine
