As one might expect, this year’s Opera Columbus Ball was intent on reaching out to a broader community.  While Opera doesn’t have a reputation for being “hip”, co-chairs Brigid Butler and Jay Dascenzo worked tirelessly to bring new life to the event.  Their vision included Shane’s Gourmet’s innovative quartet of small plates, along with our Director of Catering, Jody Harris’s, event production expertise.

To accompany Jay and Brigid’s vision – and the spectacular stage show – Chef Scott Morit CEC created an amazing menu that dazzled guests with his culinary creativity and artistic display.  “At the Opera Ball, our guests were the decoration,” Chef Scott said.  The feedback from those guests was that Chef Scott’s beautiful small plates added both color and tremendous flavor to this year’s gala.

After an evening of fabulous food and good conversation, guests returned to the lobby to find a small plate desert buffet and dance floor.  The remainder of the evening was spent dancing the night away!
