DiRoNA

This quarter, a few weeks ago, I got the pleasure of working two events for an even called DiRoNA. DiRoNA is the Distinguished Restaurants of North America. This year, owners from member of this organization met together in Louisville. I got to attend the opening reception for it at the Brown Hotel. There, I helped one of the chefs from the culinary department of Sullivan plate a lamb dish and serve it. I then got to work at a scholarship ceremony that all of the DiRoNA members attended as well as some students from Sullivan who had applied for certain scholarships. I spent five hours at school building 30 centerpieces for this seven course dinner. The centerpieces were sugar sculptures that went on plates of chocolates for the end of the night. The guests were really impressed and it was so fun to help my instructor, Chef Spendlove, prepare for the event. Here's a picture of some of the sugar showpieces and the plated dessert for the night:
