Perfect Setting Catering caters at the SHINE Gala at Mercedes-Benz of WC

On November 6th Perfect Setting Catering, Berwyn, PA, catered at the annual SHINE Gala benefiting The Cancer Program of The Chester County Hospital. To view the post with photography from the event, please click here.  The setting was very different here than at receptions and wedding venues that I am most familiar with.  The Mercedes-Benz dealership in West Chester is located in an elongated building that is different than most dealerships we see around.  It is very interesting architecturally and it was fun to photograph.  For the gala reception the dealership moved all the cars from the elongated showroom and the catering stations were setup on a series of tables along one side of the showroom with lots of room in between.  The order and presentation of everything was great, with many catering staff members available to serve everybody.

The ambient light was great for food photography.  One of my favorites, to photograph and to taste , was the Petit Filet of Beef, Sauteed-to-Order in Demi Glace.  One of the sides was a Chester County Mushroom Ragout.  Love our local Chester County Mushrooms!  Other side options included Gorgonzola Cheese, Creamed Leeks or Fried Shallots.
