Anyone who knows me knows just how much I love Olive Garden. Seriously, I eat there all the time, and back in the day, I was always one of the first to snag a Pasta Pass when they were auctioned off. Those were the days! I'd be at the clock, hyped up by my coworkers, sweating, stressing, and loving every minute of it.
So, of course, when it came time to celebrate something major, there was no doubt where it would be: Olive Garden.
I chose this particular Olive Garden location for my Harvard graduation and birthday celebration because it was convenient for my relatives to attend, and I'm so glad I did!
About two months in advance, I reached out to the manager, Thomas, to discuss the possibility of holding my luncheon there. And long story short, Kathryn, the General Manager, and Thomas made it all happen. I'm so incredibly grateful to them both!
It wasn't always easy since I was coming from Arizona, but Thomas reassured me that everything would fall into place--and he was right!
We worked together on menu ideas, and since I'm a Harvard grad, Thomas wanted to surprise me with a special menu item to celebrate. I was absolutely honored by the gesture, and the menu turned out amazing. My guests loved it, and the food was on point. Everything went smoothly, and the taste? Perfection.
A huge thank you to the entire team for making my celebration unforgettable. I'm forever grateful for your hospitality and for making my day even more special.
