The Marconi has an in house catering service for events. After the museum underwent construction, the decision was made to put in a full kitchen to benefit clients booking the museum for events. So, what’s it like to work in a place with an onsite caterer? Torture. In the most pleasant way possible. If you accidentally forget to scarf breakfast down the morning before an event, your stomach betrays you within seconds after walking through the door. It doesn’t matter if its carnita tacos simmering, lobster ravioli baking, or raw tuna being placed upon the tastiest of crackers, it all smells delicious at 9 a.m. The hypnotic aroma seeping through the kitchen is an invisible mixture of spices, tastes and ingredients beckoning you to follow it back to the kitchen. It’s similar to sleep walking, before you know it you’re in the kitchen smiling at the chefs, hoping they’ll give you some scraps. It’s a bit like this …
But! One of the best parts about having White House Catering on the premises, is you get the privilege of taste testing new recipes.
Plates upon plates stagger out of the kitchen and placed in front of your growing belly, but you don’t care because it all tastes good.
Your wiliness to give up dinner is an easy decision to justify the 20 more plates you WILL be tasting.
Dinner is probably right around the corner for you, so enjoy these photos of White House Catering’s fabulous chefs making magic in the kitchen.
