I had a fantastic time at this Elite event and was very pleasantly surprised at the excellent décor of this new(to me) establishment, the amazing service from the super friendly staff and ALL of the food was DEE-lish! I was very happy to win a gorgeous piece of oyster art from the super creative Ms. Re, and I was even inspired to dust off an old book I haven’t touched since college and re-read the Awakening by Kate Chopin. I had a wonderful time catching up with some old Unilocal pals and made a few new ones too! Great Night all around!

I definitely have to admit I didn’t know what to expect walking into my very first Elite event. I was pleasantly surprised over the entire evening! I met so many cool new people, and there were so many more there that I didn’t get a chance to meet but hope to at future events. We had an awesome/lucky group at our table… Thanks to everyone at the Perfect Storm table for making my night so much fun! Our table was lucky because 3 of the 8 people won raffle items, including me! Thank you to Re H. for making most of the raffle items they were really neat & Also a BIG Thank You to Morgan for putting a lovely evening together! (A side note) Morgan did say we were not glued to our tables once the food started coming out. Honestly I think everyone was enjoying each other’s company so much almost no one got up a mingled once the food was served, and it did wind up turning into a sit down dinner. Onto the food… The menu included… hors d’œuvre: Thunder Cheese, Raw Oyster Shooter, Cold Smoked Fried Oyster Soup: Smoked Fish Chowder Hot App: Confit Pork Cheek, Butter Poached Clams, Popcorn Rice Pilaf Entrée: Grilled Swordfish with Fresh Pea and Grilled Corm Succotash Dessert: Peanut Butter and Jelly Cheesecake with Mayhaw Jelly & Malted Marshmallow I was a bit surprised at the amount of food that was served, but I also think that’s just my inexperience with these events. It was supposed to be just a taste of everything, but it was so much more than a taste of everything. My favorite items of the evening were The cold smoked fried oyster, smoked fish chowder, and the swordfish. The biggest taste surprise of the evening for me was definitely the dessert! All I can say about that is WOW because it was so unexpected and delicious. Thank you to Grand Isle Restaurant and chef Ryan Haigler for having us & providing excellent service!
