A Meal Fit for a President ~ Inauguration 2013

We are so excited to announce that Design Cuisine has been selected again this year to serve the president at the inaugural luncheon. Our renowned Chef Shannon Shaffer is leading the team for what some consider the most high-profile event of the year. Keeping with the First Lady’s health enthusiasm, we have prepared a show-stopping menu of wholesome local cuisine.
