    I wanted to reach out and thank you for organising this for us at such late notice. Please thank Chef Icaro once again as I have received a lot of positive feedback on how amazing his food was including presentation. And the wait staff was equally amazing as she was very tentative with the guests. I will be sure to reach out in the new year for future events.
