Silverlake Conservatory of Music






This weekend we catered a special fundraiser for The Silverlake Conservatory of Music. The menu was vegetarian, but Matt still made it delicious for the carnivores. Just thought I'd share the menu because the next day, I am still thinking about it and wishing I had a doggie bag.
