Elevate the experience by pairing this classic French comfort food with a Pinot Gris from Alsace, Oregon, or California.
Roasted Yellow Pepper Bruschetta
Winter bruschetta takes center stage with this vibrant appetizer featuring roasted red tomatoes, yellow peppers, and Kalamata olive tapenade. A colorful addition to any table, it pairs harmoniously with Chardonnay or a Pomegranate-Mint Spritzer for a delightful champagne cocktail twist.

Transport your guests to the East with our Crab Rangoon, a nod to world cuisine. Perfectly paired with a Rangoon Ruby Cocktail, these delights are sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
Mini Beef Wellingtons
Playful and elegant, mini Beef Wellingtons redefine festive dining. Crafted with USDA choice aged beef tenderloin and mushroom duxelle, they invite guests to savor unique flavors. Accompany with a Merlot or whiskey-based cocktail for an unforgettable experience.
Casino Shrimp
No cocktail party is complete without shrimp, and our intensely flavored Casino Shrimp, marinated in a spicy mix and wrapped in Applewood smoked bacon, is a must-try. Serve with a classic martini or gin-based cocktail for a sophisticated touch.
Macaroni and Cheese Poppers with No Ham
Pulled Pork in Cornbread
Bring the barbecue vibes to your holiday table with Pulled Pork in Cornbread. Tangy BBQ sauce complements the tender pulled pork, pairing excellently with bourbon-based cocktails like John Collins or the rum-based Anejo Highball.
Sesame Chicken Tenders
For chicken enthusiasts, our Sesame Chicken tenders, coated in sesame seeds and Japanese Panko breadcrumbs, offer a delightful blend of sweet, salty, crispy, and spicy. Pair with the tropical flavors of a Mai Tai cocktail.
