It's an ex-pat dinner we're hosting for some of our new neighbors in Panama.

Appetizer
Choice of duck pate on sliced French bread or caviar with hard-boiled egg and chopped onions on Carr's crackers. Cold champagne.

Entree
Grilled New York strip steaks with a sauce of portobello mushrooms, onion and garlic.
Quartered potato wedges marinated in olive oil, salt, black pepper and fresh Rosemary then grilled on all sides.
Salad with Romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, green pepper rings and pine nuts with a creamy Italian dressing.
French Cote du Rhone red wine.

Dessert
Panamanian coffee.
Tropical fruit salad of pineapple, papaya, mango and green grapes.
Brandy, if anyone wants it, (no one is driving today!).

Respectful gratitude to those who gave the last measure of devotion for the people of the United States.
