Lavish cocktail parties - a how-to

Summer is upon us and the work powers that be decided to spring a fun Thursday outing on the staff with lessons on how to throw a proper (pinkies up) cocktail party. Fueled with good food and great drinks while surrounded by awesome company the team headed down to North Park in San Diego for a step-by-step culinary and cocktail guide c/o of Hip Cooks. The theme for the night was infusions.

Peter (PEEEETAAAAA!!), our gastronomic sage guided us on our journey teaching us how to prep and cook fabulous finger foods. We created 3 dishes at a time and while the food cooked the team diversion came via Aaron, master mixologist, who taught us how to make Dionysian libations (also 3 at a time) appropriately paired for our noms. We were sooooo fancy :)

2 rounds of delicious apps and lots of liquid love brought the team together in celebration of 1/2 a year of amazing work for ourselves and our clients. It was a well deserved party and I can't wait to visit Hip Cooks again for one of their other classes. If you're looking for a fun learning experience (in San Diego or any of their other locations) check Hip Cooks out - you won't be sorry!
