If you get a chance, try some of Pianetta's award winning wines at their tasting room in downtown Paso. Guests enjoyed an evening of hospitality provided by Caitlin, Angie and the whole lovely Pianetta "family." Those of us in the kitchen were treated to Grandma Alice. A sprite and charming woman of 75 or so, Grandma Alice stuffed us with her addictive biscotti, shared 100 year old Italian recipes, and told us tales from her days as a young girl. How adorable are Chef Hope and Grandma Alice here pouring over an old recipe?</div><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312470537466375330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuiIJ8xCzCo85b6KuBwKTolQLVyGT1Dvpndo7-6wrwLV0r14TvmdMzFi8FRbGHZcsA2wjvpIECp74b9oEiLXGntxzbFo6gYZoVjbrI5xEIK2Z-1tH2L5H2snKevmwC3U-npr5qMscC6boO/s400/IMG_1046.jpg" border="0" /></div></div><br /><div align="center"><br />More photos from Trumpet Vine's amateur photographer</div><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312471295161542306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvyWCGW-AnYiLNKz-VEd1p3Gr_VK8mueR5SjDwiPOzTpqCIZw-1t2LldaH3MjDnMwmh-xfTyiAm5kfYH1p9nXvkfRYmi2NVE1qWgJcWbddUsOpaCjJCBnaXMimx9wS1qDdvsKxqECd09gB/s320/IMG_1067.jpg" border="0" /></p><div align="center">Peppered Beef Tenderloin, Chevre, Baby Arugula and Sweet Potato Cake</div><div align="center"></div><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312472241656152162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQEEJGvkDdFBLwf4HMuZjCMKJ7JUGzQImkunqfwUymo7tF0uLBHI776gdDXlqaY1ar_jzqUd1uq8Ors38qKU-ZgfInEHjvlyMseALTEXILf-wmQeIctPpFjs8rRCsbk_nziMZHzeAaytrb/s320/IMG_1024.jpg" border="0" /> Briased Cabbage and Short Rib Spring Rolls with Plum Sauce Drizzle</p><p align="center"><br /></p><p></p><br /><br /><p></p>Trumpet Vine Cateringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06575098838098557847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233508032805613885.post-38046115356137034452009-03-03T05:23:00.000-08:002009-03-12T18:22:22.850-07:00Heaven in "Hell's Kitchen"<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-heH4sbKHClenezcRv7vVgOp7byz2BjS79jnSuS-abIdxVZx8VUNrqybJMMRQHBjrN-He93E8UPZGanzOg04PRUpUoCxHIiz5UpWeumI6AI-paxJivGWF1SkDkCZiGvAgj7wpVTX2fUGZ/s1600-h/IMG_1149_edited.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5308956832644858610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 283px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-heH4sbKHClenezcRv7vVgOp7byz2BjS79jnSuS-abIdxVZx8VUNrqybJMMRQHBjrN-He93E8UPZGanzOg04PRUpUoCxHIiz5UpWeumI6AI-paxJivGWF1SkDkCZiGvAgj7wpVTX2fUGZ/s400/IMG_1149_edited.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Yes, <em>that</em> "Hell's Kitchen!" Chef Gordon Ramsay, film crew, and the current contestants from the popular Fox television show visited our beloved Paso Robles on Monday. Go Paso! Hosted by the lovely folks at <a href="http://www.meridianvineyards.com/">Meridian Vineyards</a>, contestants were filmed during a wine blending seminar in their gianormous Barrel Chai. Following the demonstration, we provided a "Rewards" dinner buffet for everyone. Chef Ramsay was very warm and gracious. I nearly swallowed my tongue when he asked "What are we having?" </div><br /><div>Apparently, female chefs are few and far between in the UK. He seemed impressed that not one, but TWO females were responsible for preparing the group's meal. High five ladies! Thank you to my dear Corinne from <a href="http://www.panaceaflowers.com/">Panacea Event Floral Design</a> for providing a calm presence and help with styling our buffet presentation. Corinne's hilarious take on it all can be found in the <a href="http://www.panaceaflowers.blogspot.com/">Whimsey Files.</a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Trumpet Vine Cateringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06575098838098557847noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233508032805613885.post-76820151207920258432009-02-28T06:50:00.000-08:002009-03-03T16:45:36.551-08:00Bride's Choice Award 2009<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipBtafzP19IjpYvSWr4JBqEiss06R81Yd6Llsn0MnQ3xtqntpMOhwzSmTyOvHvsHwBzI4H5Tk2QIgCCRPYtT7jqWCJDhMmMISucMzFuZA1oWoLhcQT20mPgB5a9fxzy3ywbukovXOELQES/s1600-h/BCA-logo.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307860869019542178" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 155px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 141px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipBtafzP19IjpYvSWr4JBqEiss06R81Yd6Llsn0MnQ3xtqntpMOhwzSmTyOvHvsHwBzI4H5Tk2QIgCCRPYtT7jqWCJDhMmMISucMzFuZA1oWoLhcQT20mPgB5a9fxzy3ywbukovXOELQES/s400/BCA-logo.gif" border="0" /></a> We are excited to announce that Trumpet Vine Catering has been selected to receive the "Bride's Choice Award" from WeddingWire.com.

Seems like there are too many people, formalities and excitement to think about sitting down for 5 minutes to eat. Thus, our latest addition to the Trumpet Vine experience for our couples. The "Send off Picnic " features an insulated picnic basket packed with "Leftovers for Lovers" (various appetizers and dishes from the reception menu). We make sure this gets tucked into the getaway car at the end of the evening so our newlyweds can munch and relax privately back at their suite. When it is all said and done, our couples have a little memento from their wedding caterer to last a lifetime.Trumpet Vine Cateringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06575098838098557847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233508032805613885.post-10046704084909704772008-09-05T05:26:00.000-07:002008-12-09T19:05:31.215-08:00Backstage at the California Mid-State Fair<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwpkOsw98TMFTkJIe7xVDEwdr2mlaP5T1WIIG_YyLAAP0OKD28rWHncspL0KNWeRvydcOOuniD6_M8YviU-V7u1qmBt0MSiXgGh9haxkeqJShn-WlTruExW-HvgIZPShDDJM7nYeZk5TTe/s1600-h/IMG_1787.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242514129673794482" style="WIDTH: 356px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 204px" height="232" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwpkOsw98TMFTkJIe7xVDEwdr2mlaP5T1WIIG_YyLAAP0OKD28rWHncspL0KNWeRvydcOOuniD6_M8YviU-V7u1qmBt0MSiXgGh9haxkeqJShn-WlTruExW-HvgIZPShDDJM7nYeZk5TTe/s320/IMG_1787.jpg" width="266" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLKrHWeM7wh_nsU6SAr8oU034xw86LGBBWVlFs5HtqUeJVnpy6A_ROzIwGcGtf1iEBRBYI7hqKUZ6pOyHCIu00fPNy32lFLB1YAudKMMaeFm5QLJq9FiWhtGrhGOJEzGm02kGUQbZe3KD7/s1600-h/IMG_1788.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242513652347795730" style="WIDTH: 361px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 244px" height="318" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLKrHWeM7wh_nsU6SAr8oU034xw86LGBBWVlFs5HtqUeJVnpy6A_ROzIwGcGtf1iEBRBYI7hqKUZ6pOyHCIu00fPNy32lFLB1YAudKMMaeFm5QLJq9FiWhtGrhGOJEzGm02kGUQbZe3KD7/s320/IMG_1788.jpg" width="320" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicFTM4I1z79OkV1l84k0v-s1FcaZalx3v9GO11tMr3NZtQrl6h3cBMWzjuEzsl5UQi87JkmyYYcR-bmHUpleLNSqMwJ3M8c_XWhKMreW4x67yGMb-3a6XBnPJsCVoyEnAc6CuJKKRnusul/s1600-h/IMG_1794.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242513330418160482" style="WIDTH: 146px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px" height="246" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicFTM4I1z79OkV1l84k0v-s1FcaZalx3v9GO11tMr3NZtQrl6h3cBMWzjuEzsl5UQi87JkmyYYcR-bmHUpleLNSqMwJ3M8c_XWhKMreW4x67yGMb-3a6XBnPJsCVoyEnAc6CuJKKRnusul/s320/IMG_1794.jpg" width="240" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwSUafEYh61X1OYDouYP6HvQ5k4uSB6KxrZilrwlK78r4NYu7vTrM982Z8SYdQH3O3Nk0vyneBRSaHHEXCQor910BToRTHxAvMuFN2kj9NbOw0AYb4XVPcW2Xje58mERdxzgoLuxCjFoBt/s1600-h/IMG_1797.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242513009805211314" style="WIDTH: 218px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px" height="240" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwSUafEYh61X1OYDouYP6HvQ5k4uSB6KxrZilrwlK78r4NYu7vTrM982Z8SYdQH3O3Nk0vyneBRSaHHEXCQor910BToRTHxAvMuFN2kj9NbOw0AYb4XVPcW2Xje58mERdxzgoLuxCjFoBt/s320/IMG_1797.jpg" width="253" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>This was our 4th year as the caterer for backstage artist, support and crews at the California Mid-State Fair's 10-day event. This is some of our shiny happy crew sweating it out in the Paso heat. Take note of our sweet new salad buffet in the pictures above. The CMSF bought it this year and we love it. It takes so little to make us caterers happy. We had a great time and Chef Hope got to prepare chicken for Toby Keith while he chatted her up at the BBQ. Woohoo! That is about the extent of the glamour we experienced. <div>Can't wait to see the line-up for 2009!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>Trumpet Vine Cateringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06575098838098557847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233508032805613885.post-14514257331170274392008-05-29T20:39:00.001-07:002009-01-10T12:41:58.089-08:00Meghan & Matt<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlC_4dTKrzdaT0GCRGrmJQJgeqHelUr84AdJxHYx1Tl6KWtZOkmo43RJCbUtn7h1qzdDhu2zawml7IH-WR0DtN_A6cVvxBXxNljtzNTVnhop_lXzJLIo28DP8DpGyj1l5g_LQQAyNOPpR4/s1600-h/j0335_goldman_0598-795940.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5206015074020144482" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 261px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 257px" height="218" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlC_4dTKrzdaT0GCRGrmJQJgeqHelUr84AdJxHYx1Tl6KWtZOkmo43RJCbUtn7h1qzdDhu2zawml7IH-WR0DtN_A6cVvxBXxNljtzNTVnhop_lXzJLIo28DP8DpGyj1l5g_LQQAyNOPpR4/s320/j0335_goldman_0598-795940.jpg" width="203" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXneh2-3YB9XSwR61bJZJURttyjApG5uNSjc2YREIeagjtrLpJ13dUw8aw5YDbHMAvPeMc9qRkgAgpRJNnB_0Degh_DRfyBxgoELbeX_pqiYQ63efFgAiXLe-A2cuNw1qXtWcsXR463uz8/s1600-h/j0335_goldman_1457-Edit-707785.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5206015078315111794" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 302px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 220px" height="150" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXneh2-3YB9XSwR61bJZJURttyjApG5uNSjc2YREIeagjtrLpJ13dUw8aw5YDbHMAvPeMc9qRkgAgpRJNnB_0Degh_DRfyBxgoELbeX_pqiYQ63efFgAiXLe-A2cuNw1qXtWcsXR463uz8/s320/j0335_goldman_1457-Edit-707785.jpg" width="261" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxAxNEG8-wCiS_eDVW-sNx9JLyeur-UxwM7rPO7KyhdHy3YzSVQrP_yn8Xk_Wso7bWCO5LsD83VDGOWgr8KCJt_GgMuvNy_csgvfx1eTYGDAo5xFtXLBK7H3DIvcNHCmOWvr6fW8_BdoM0/s1600-h/j0335_goldman_3778-Edit-779772.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5206015082610079106" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 428px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 235px" height="117" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxAxNEG8-wCiS_eDVW-sNx9JLyeur-UxwM7rPO7KyhdHy3YzSVQrP_yn8Xk_Wso7bWCO5LsD83VDGOWgr8KCJt_GgMuvNy_csgvfx1eTYGDAo5xFtXLBK7H3DIvcNHCmOWvr6fW8_BdoM0/s320/j0335_goldman_3778-Edit-779772.jpg" width="250" border="0" /></a>This couple is too cool for school.
