Unveiling the Impact Winter Immersive Feast

At Coast Catering, we are always thrilled to be a part of unique and exciting culinary experiences. In July, we had the pleasure of collaborating with Civic Entertainment Group to bring to life a feast that was nothing short of spooktacular. The occasion? A celebration of the second season of the Audible original, Impact Winter, during Comic Con.

A Feast to Remember

Our mission was clear: to create a dining experience that would not only leave a lasting impression but also align perfectly with the eerie and captivating world of Impact Winter. With that in mind, our culinary team went to work, crafting a menu that would send shivers down your spine and tantalize your taste buds.

Appetizing Darkness

The night began with our Gravlax featuring crystalline herbs, foraged greens and ferns, and a zesty citronette, all crowned with delicate ice pearls. This dish was a bewitching fusion of flavors and textures that set the stage for the sinister delights that were to follow.

Our guests with dietary restrictions received our Citrus Aqua Chile, a bewitching fusion of flavors featuring rose petals, local tangerine, chile, grapefruit press, mache, and ice pearls. This dish was an enigmatic dance of citrus and spice, perfectly setting the stage for the sinister delights that were to follow.

A Fiery Entrée

Our Slow Blood Braised Beef Short Rib was the main attraction, a dish that embodied the essence of Impact Winter. Paired with roasted root vegetables, beet-root-infused potato puree, a rich red wine reduction, and a crisp that's completely gluten-free, this entrée was a symphony of flavor and texture that captivated the senses.

For those seeking a vegetarian option, we offered the Slow-Braised Portabello "Short Rib," served with leeks, root vegetables, celery root puree, red beet, and Zinfandel reduction, topped with a crispy touch. A dish that proved vegetarians could embrace the dark side of flavor.

Sinful Sweetness

As the night unfolded, our Blackberry and Elderberry Mousse took center stage, a dessert that embodied the dark and decadent theme. Encased in a spun sugar cage, adorned with silver-dusted blackberries, and infused with Genoise Caramel Whiskey, this dessert was a sinfully sweet conclusion to the feast, leaving guests in awe.

An Unforgettable Evening

The Impact Winter Immersive Feast was more than just a meal; it was an experience that transported guests into a world of mystery and suspense. We were thrilled to be a part of such a thrilling event, where the line between reality and the supernatural blurred, all set against the backdrop of Comic Con San Diego.

At Coast Catering, we relish the opportunity to craft innovative menus that elevate the dining experience to another level. Our team of talented chefs and event experts are dedicated to creating unforgettable moments, no matter the occasion!
