Take away the pressure of plated dinners and figuring out who’s ordering what with the preset ‘Mediterranean Feast,’ featuring signature Aba favorites, served family-style.

Sales and Catering Manager Angela Smurawa agrees that “A menu meant for mingling leads to a much more relaxed and enjoyable event!”
