This Valentine’s Day, Marist held its first ever Hudson River Romance Dinner.
This reservations-only event was exclusively available for students who wanted more of an intimate dining experience with their significant other, or just a nice Valentine’s dinner with friends.
Standing inside the dining room, you would have never known that you were even in the Dining Hall! Diners were sat in the Quiet Dining room for a candle-lit dinner, overlooking the beautiful Hudson River with tables set with red tablecloths, place settings and a single rose next to each plate. It was beautiful!
Like at a real restaurant, students were greeted by Sodexo employees who served as waiters and waitresses.
The menu offered a variety of exquisite options like the Moroccan Smoked Salmon, Surf and Turf, as well as Vegetarian plate with Grilled Portobello Mushrooms, Ratatouille and a pool of Basil Pesto. For dessert, a decadent Raspberry Marshmallow and Milk Chocolate Mousse was served.
Tables of couples, friends and even a few employees seemed to really enjoy themselves. It was great to see students having such a good time with the people they care about. This was truly a fabulous idea, and turned out to be a great success!
