I hosted the dinner, the menu and pairings was what the restaruant did for
any guests that night...it was their 5 couse tasting menu for Saturday

I simply hosted some guests of mine, meaning I made the arrangements and if
the table did not object, we all had to do the tasting menu.

I have the full copy of the selections that night that they gave me with our
meal pairings and can send in PDF from scan.

All I did was arrange, eat, drink and pay for table. It was very nice and
they had great food and service.
