La Grande Bouffe

Digs magazine #1 suggestion for "Hosting a divine dinner party without losing your mind" is "Limit the guest list to 12 and under". We had no fewer than 25 people to dinner which was amazing, and sat them all down. Digs Magazine also claims that "The dinner party is not a party party. Whereas the latter conjures up images of loud music, free-flowing alcohol, standing-room only crowds and raucous revelry, the former is, in many ways, its complete antithesis: the epitome of relaxed, intimate elegance", which did not pertain to this party either. But the thing that made it possible without anyone losing their mind was that Aaron planned the menu, shopped and cooked, and Aaron loves it. It was fantastic . 4 courses! 180 oysters! and 25 happy, sated, guests singing along to Paul and John's after dinner rendition of "Shook Me All Night Long."
