On my flight to Chicago today I read a story in the Wall Street Journal about Mac 'n Cheese hitting New York's trendy eateries. Maybe it is a sign of the times that people are striving for comfort in foods, but I was a bit surprised that it has taken this long for this story to come out. Great restaurants have been serving amazing macaroni and cheese combinations for years. As a caterer, one of my personal favorites has been lobster mac 'n cheese. My wedding clients are always striving to make their wedding unique, but the questions they ask along the way are "What are the rules? What do we have to do? What is right?" I can not iterate enough to every bride and groom that, just like life, there are no rules. Of course there are etiquette guidelines that should be followed, but the best and easiest way to make your wedding unique is to add things you love. Simple additions to show off your style and personality are far more reaching than large budgets. So don't be afraid to insert some flare and creativity, even if it's mac 'n cheese during your cocktail hour (which is popular by the way).
I'm thrilled about this article and am wondering if Macbar has an open reservation for Thanksgiving. How can you not be thankful with a plate of cheese in front of you?
