| - You follow your heart to find the love of your life. When choosing the perfect place to celebrate your love, you follow your gut. And my gut told me, "White Chocolate Cheesecake, Double-baked in Phyllo with Biscotti Crust."
The private dinning at Jump was perfect for an intimate celebration I had in mind, warm, classy and stylish. The restaurant event coordinator was professional, highly organized and very accommodating throughout the planning process.
The chef did a phenomenal job of creating delicious vegan dishes for our vegetarian friends.
Hors d' oeuvres:
+Mango and crunchy vegetable rice paper roll was fresh and tasty.
+Spiced beef empanada with chipotle sour cream was so good, there was none left. Golden pastry crust and flavorful filling.
+Vegetable samosa was crispy and lip-smacking good.
Appetizers:
+Peekytoe Crab Cakes with celeriac remoulade and citrus dill caper dressing. Hands down, one of the best crab cake I have ever had.
+Boneless Bacon Wrapped Quail with fiery pineapple B.B.Q. Thumbs up from the guests who ordered them.
+Wild & Tame Mushroom soup. If you see this on the menu, try it. "No less than six type of mushroom with no cream or butter," our chef friend couldn't stop talking about how tasty it was.
Entree:
+New York Strip & Shrimp with buttermilk mashed potatoes. This was no ordinary surf & turf. Tomato onion confit, sticky mushroom gravy and broccolini complimented the steak and shrimp perfectly.
+Mahogany Glazed Black Cod. I normally don't care for cod, but that glazed buttery cod with madras curried lentils, cilantro and mint chutney was so good!
Desserts.
+Soma Molten Chocolate Cake with espresso créme anglaise.
+Banana Cream Pie with toasted coconut and caramel sauce.
+White Chocolate Cheesecake, double-baked in phyllo with biscotti crust.
They were all fantastic. Everyone practically licked their plate.
I was extremely pleased with the high level of professionalism and service of the staff. The head wait staff was terrific. She was polite, attentive, and had a good sense of humor.
What a wonderful evening that was, good food, intimate and warm space and impeccable service.
