The Auditorium Theatre is without a doubt, one of my favorite special event venues in Chicago! The elegance and history that emanates from its walls set the perfect ambiance for events of all kinds and sizes. The acoustics in the theater are world-renowned and provide a perfect space for musical engagements and it’s always fun to plan menus around the shows! For instance, I would have loved this Parisian menu last weekend during performances of Moulin Rouge – The Ballet! A theme appropriate bistro buffet menu would include some of these delicious French items:
Hors d’Oeuvres Station Serving
Duck Confit with Cranberry Black Pepper Chutney
Resting on a Petite Sweet Potato Gaufrette
