Serves You Right! recently hosted World President's Organization, City of Angeles Chapter for a preview of our new event space. When guests arrived they
were invited to explore the venue before sitting for a brief meeting.
After the meeting, guests
walked next door to the Serves You Right! Lounge and Kitchen, and were divided
into groups to begin WPOCA Kitchen Wars! The first set of teams participated in
a cocktail making competition which was led by Luke Barr of The Grand Bevy.
Luke gave the groups an introduction to cocktail making, and explained that the
team's cocktails would be judged on presentation, taste, and creativity. The teams were
given 15 minutes to create their own special concoctions!
The other attendees were invited into the
kitchen to compete in a trifle making competition. Michele Gan, owner of
Serves You Right!, and Joan Spitzer of Joanie & Leigh's Cakes gave
teams an introduction to the elements of a great trifle. Teams then
had twenty minutes to work together and create their trifles. The teams were
also judged on presentation, taste, creativity.
The final products of the Trifle making competition:
Following the competition, guests were invited back to the Serves You Right! Venue for cocktails and hors
d'oeuvres while their creations were being judged. Some of our featured appetizers were Kobe Beef Pigs in a Blanket, and Sweet Corn Cake topped with
Tomato Avocado Salsa and Cotija Cheese.
At the beginning of dinner,
the winning cocktail was served for all of the guests to try. The first course of the
evening was an Heirloom Tomato Salad with Burrata and Balsamic
Pearls followed by Grilled Skirt Steak served with Chimichurri
Sauce and Balsamic Glazed Chicken for the main course.
Serves You Right! Catering had a blast creating this event with
the fabulous ladies of Hold the Date Events. We look forward to hosting more
events like this at our venue in the future.
