June 30: Elegant Summer Brunch in Historic Lincoln Park Mans

Savor a chef-prepared brunch in a historic 1886 mansion, while being regaled with tales of this fascinating home's history. Chef Peg is a graduate of Chicago's own CHIC, and prepares each dish from scratch, using only fresh and and low-fat ingredients. The menu, yet to be determined, will include three elegant courses as well as coffee, decaf, and teas.
For an idea of Chef Peg's seasonal offerings, here's what she served at the Spring Brunch:
Fresh Fruit Opener: Fresh pink grapefruit, mango, and blueberries in a honey-white wine syrup infused with fresh thyme
Main Course: *Asparagus-mushroom quiche, *Home-made Turkey-apple sausage patties *Salad of fresh greens, shaved fennel, and roasted baby beets drizzled with fresh Dijon mustard vinaigrette
Finish: Vanilla frozen yogurt topped with rhubarb compote
And here's what some of our pleased guests had to say:
*Brunch was so special and the house tour was so much fun! I can only imagine the work that you have done to prepare for having us come together. What a wonderful memorable time. I grew up in Paris, France and in Sweden so the brunch brought back familiar memories. Thanks so much.*
*Brad & I want to thank you for providing us a MOST entertaining Saturday afternoon!!! We totally enjoyed the company at our table....YOU are magnificent as a hostess/inn-keeper extraordinaire, and Chef Peg is a welcome at any & all gatherings! The food was superior, and you had the entire event planned perfectly to the last detail =VERY organized +++ FUN!!!*
*Just a note to say Thank You for your gracious hospitality on Saturday. We were throughly delighted to be able to spend the morning enjoying Peg's delicous food and meeting delightful people. Your place is charming and I look forward to being in attendance at another brunch or event in the future.* *We are thanking you and Peg for putting on such a wonderful event! We thoroughly enjoyed the delectable brunch and the pleasure of your company. You have a wonderful home with a rich history and we look forward to participating at the next event.*

Has anyone who regularly posts on LTH attended one of these? Not sure how interested or not I am, but I am always interested in hearing reports from my trusted fellow LTH-ers.

Hi,

I will take one for the team. I have made a reservation for four people. If anyone wants to join my seating, then let me know.

Regards,
