This month's reserve dinner for Villa St. Benedict was Greek themed! Chef Jeremy DeRango put together a five course tasting menu that was influenced by Mediterranean flavors. With the help of Katie Kunkel, Liz Blume, and Nikki Beckus, the dinner was a huge success. Residents ended the night with a standing ovation for the team and the chef. We look forward to our next Reserve dinner in February.
