    We're doing a seated dinner, our options are:

    Chicken Maison
    Beef Tenderloin with Bordelaise Sauce
    Tilapia Florentine
    Portobello Mushroom Ravioli (Vegetarian)
    Pasta Primavera (Kosher)

    The meat/fish dishes will come with glazed baby carrots and red bliss mashed potatoes.  So yummy!

    We have like 2 Kosher guests so at the last minute we had to add a FIFTH option!  I still don't know what I'm going to get!

    ETA:  We will also have hors d'oeuvres that I can't remember and a cake with 4 different flavors, each with different fillings, so I'm not listing it all!
