Chef Brynda of Vera & Co, created a meal with so many colors and flavors it was so easy to ask for more. With three courses plus desert, it was so fun to be with a small group of people eating incredible food.

When I asked H & J what they were looking forward to most, it was spending time with thier friends and family eating good food. And Man, did they achieve that goal. AND we had an incredible sunset.
