a december to remember!
the "feyo suéter" a.k.a. ugly sweater dinner party this past sunday was hilarious and delicious! we had everyone donned in their gayest yuletide outfit ready to feast on the "best of yo soy 2010" dishes. we did a pumpkin play on the pork potstickers that everyone loves, we also represented with the carrot star anise soup that made me "fall" for brian, and we busted out the claypots for the cajeta claypot chicken that was mouthwatering good! the group that was in attendance consisted of our staple guest, ken, and also some new faces that were perfectly poised for good times (melissa and crew)! there were guests in from florida that brought a ray of sunshine and also, some that are fastly becoming regulars at our table (enrique and noah). we were thrilled to have this group at our last yo soy of the year. we were equally elated that we had an opera singer who is truly gifted and gorgeous perform handel and my fave "think of me" from phantom for us! many thanks to genevieve thiers!
on another great note, this weeks issue of time out chicago listed us as "worthiest runners-up" in the gay and lesbian "year in queer" favorite things! woooo-hooooooo! that's awesome! thanks time out, we love you, mucho.
with all the holiday festivities in full swing it definitely makes us look back on all the great people we have met through yo soy, and the amazing talent that has been shared. our hearts smile when we think of the guests that we have had that shared their sunday with us, and came together over our passion for food and hospitality. we hope to have a renewed set of faves that 2011 will produce, and memories to match, that you all will help create over the next year. the january dinner date will be set in stone this week (we are toying with 01.16.11), so please, please stay tuned!
feliz navidad!
happy chanukah!
merry christmas!
happy kwanzaa!
prospero años,
mikey + brian
