Kool Cuisine Dinner Party

While on my way to the Essence Festival in New Orleans this year, I promised myself when I finished my around the world in 80 days fabo trip I would write about an event experience I had in Lake Charles, Louisiana. One of my girlfriend’s cousins live there and took us to an event called Kool Cuisine Dinner Party! So when we walk up I was like “so we just going to a restaurant” while outside, but once inside from my ears I knew my instinct was wrong altogether.  As I heard my favorite song - Ro James “Permission” bumping sexually across a deejay sound system I was like Ok Nah.  The room was soulfully decorated with tables and chairs dressed in black and silver linens, complete with candles and cutlery place settings.  The state of the art photo booth gave it the ambiance of a red carpet and by this time I was like Kool Cuisine Dinner “Party” dummy duh. Immediately after sitting, a handsome waiter took our order which we had a choice of - Grilled Pork Loin or Cajun Grilled Chicken Breast either with potatoes or rice pilaf, hot bread, with a vegetable medley. As we waited for our meal, which was

less than ten minutes, the Chef himself walked around with appetizers made with salmon and caviar for each guest to try! Now I have been a lot of places, done a whooooole lot of things, but never served these two things personally by the chef! F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S.   So I went with the Pork Lion which was seasoned like only Louisiana can, topped with some cinnamon baked apples. With all these blends of flavors, it was diabolical to my taste buds!

 I had great laughs and good conservations with my friends, and I met some new friends sitting at our table as the Dj was grooving smooth R&B with a touch of Hip Hop blended with some of that juke joint ear candy you only hear south of the Mason Dixon.  As we completed our meals, we were offered dessert which was a choice of Raspberry Champagne Cake or a special German Chocolate Cake. The German Chocolate was so moist it’ll make my granny sit down! I flirted with the waiter long enough to get a second piece.  This was pretty much the highlight of my weekend, even over the celebrity infused events I attended throughout the weekend at Essence Festival in New Orleans.  Now the bar was a little tired with the lack of drink selections, but I was still able to get a Vodka and Cranberry so I bump them up to lazy. Even being VIP at most of the Essence Events, I still spent a pretty penny on food and service in New Orleans, but the greatest night - which was Kool Cuisine Dinner Party, only cost me 25 bucks. Go figure! The atmosphere of Kool Cuisine Dinner Party gives you what a modern day Cotton Club would be like, or even Ray’s Boom Boom Room if it was real.
