The gorgeous JW Burnham Ballroom was perfect for our ABC Holiday Celebration

We had a great time at the ABC Holiday Networking Meeting on December 11.  The incredible team at JW Marriott Chicago, wowed us with amazing food, conversation and exceptional service. We enjoyed  signature champagne cocktails and delicious hor dourves including mini-latkes on silver spoons and filet mignon grilled cheese bites in the beautiful Grand Ballroom.   Our hosts Miranda Thomas & Anthony Micheletti then took us up to the gorgeous JW Burnham Ballroom on the fourth floor for dinner.  The menu was stunning…a 5-star dining experience and a feast for the senses: Creamy Butternut Squash Soup to start, followed by a deconstructed Roasted Pear Salad, continuing with a choice of Filet of Beef, Roasted Duck Breast or Truffle Cavatelli Pasta.

My Vegetarian Entree: Truffle Cavatelli Pasta with Vegetables

My favorite course dessert was not to be missed!   Pastry Chef Kimberly prepared a delicious display for each table:  pumpkin, chocolate and cranberry Creme Brûlée, Devil’s Food Cake and Red Velvet Snowballs.  Each dessert was visually beautiful and tasted even better!  She even took the time to provide each of our members with a little treat to take home to our loved ones: Chocolate Peppermint Bark & Homemade Peppermint Hot Chocolate Mix in adorable little jars. Now that’s the icing on the cake!

Holiday Creme Brûlée: Pumpkin & Cranberry & Chocolate...so delicious!

The degree of service was absolutely amazing from each and every JW Marriott staff member.  I cannot wait to tell my clients all about this beautiful gem in the heart of our wonderful city of Chicago.  Thank you Miranda and Anthony for being the perfect hosts and for creating such an amazing evening for our ABC Illinois members!

What a gorgeous table!
