Another Great Event with Amuse Consulting!

On Saturday, Marc from Amuse Consulting threw an awesome "South Beach" Garden Party for Sheleen and Randall and 65 vip guests at their home on the west side (why do I see Brian Jessel everywhere??). Liquid Bartending was there pouring drinks and mixing martinis for the guests as the lovely ladies from Tommy's Catering handed out some amazing hor d'oevres. If that wasn't enough, there was a dessert FEAST made by Estelle from Mozart Bakery. DELICIOUS! Sandy and I will probably be hiring Estelle to make our wedding cake.
I swear the garnishes were nicer. I just didn't think to take pictures of the drinks until I ran out of garnishes. Call me stupid. The true garnishes were candied lemon and lime wheels with candied lemon and lime zests sprinkled on top. The watermelon martini picture has the last of the zest on it. The hpnotiq south beach martini only has a sad lime wheel. Sorry everyone!

Burnaby Board of Trade Golf Tournament

This past Thursday, Liquid Bartending teamed up with Savoury Chef Catering to serve drinks and food at the Burnaby Board of Trade's 2009 Annual Golf Tournament at the Burnaby Mountain Golf Course. Proceeds from the event went to the Burnaby Empty Bowls Food Initiative. Golfers were treated to a delectable menu of Kusshi oysters with a raspberry mignonette, rare beef on brioche with micro greens and a garlic aioli, as well as a selection of fine cheeses, bread, crackers and grapes.


Liquid Bartending mixed four cocktails to beat the heat for the event including:

the "Tiger" Collins - Classic tom collins (tie -3rd favourite)
the "Fuzzy" Mint Julep - A peach puree mint julep served with lots of crushed ice (tie - 3rd favourite)
the "Lefty" Lemonade - Vanilla infused fresh squeezed lemonade with vodka (crowd favorite)
the "Golden Bear" Teas Off - Fresh watermelon puree with black and white ice tea, citrus and white rum (2nd favorite)


This event was a tremendous success. Special thanks to @jasonBBOT for organizing the tournament and hooking up Liquid Bartending. Booze, Food, Golf and Sun, all for a good cause. What more can you ask for?
