Travel Journal: Sevy’s Grill

I recently came back from a trip to Dallas for my sister’s baby shower. We had the celebration at Sevy’s Grill, which I’ve been hearing about for years. Now I know why. YUM. The food was scrumptious. Maybe that’s why Sevy’s was named Diners’ Choice Winner in Dallas in 2010 by OpenTable.com. The service? Beyond compare.

Here’s a peek at our custom luncheon menu…

Let’s not forget about the cake! Dallas Affaires Cake Co. created one of the best chocolate cakes I’ve ever tasted, and it looked gorgeous, too, with fresh roses and hyacinth on top. I was in awe when I entered the bakery or should I say cake museum? True works of art.

…and what’s a party without flowers? Mockingbird Florist was recommended by my brother-in-law who is a regular. My sister has trained him well. We expected to have trouble picking out natural blue flowers since IT’S A BOY! But the floral geniuses at Mockingbird whipped up bunches of baby blue and white hydrangeas, deep blue irises, and powder blue hyacinths in no time. It was the perfect finishing touch to the room.

The fabulous NYC photographer, Marian Goldman, flew in specifically for the event and, yet again, captured another important day for our family beautifully…did I mention she’s my aunt?

I’ll soon be back to meet my new nephew (yay!), I think a celebratory dinner, cake, and flower arrangement is in order!
