Symphonic Entertaining (December 7 – December 13, 2014)

To me, creativity and entertaining are synonymous. I recommend creating themed dinners. I recommend symphonic entertaining. Music enhances the dining experience. When we entertain, I play the piano as the Champagne is being served. Then, after dinner, I return to the piano so that our guests can continue to mingle. If live music is not available, simply turn on a recording. During the holidays, I suggest Tchaikovsky or Bach. Name the courses of food as if Suites of music. Create each course as a work of art. For dessert this year, utilize thin slices of colorful fruit (sliced by a mandoline) by forming individually plated “stained glass.” It is a beautiful look and the “window” can be topped with your favorite dessert or ice cream. © Kelly McBride Loft
