Held on the rooftop of the Wex Headquarters in September 2022, this was a gathering of 300 innovative minds. We created a menu rooted in Maine’s local flavors to impress a wide group of coworkers.

The event began with an array of passed hors d’oeuvres, where Maine Crab Cakes with tartar and fried caper delighted, and the Veggie Nori Roll with Ponzu catered to vegan and gluten-free preferences. The comfort of Franks in a Blanket with Yellow Mustard mingled with the sophistication of Melted Brie on Crostini drizzled with local honey, and Bacon Wrapped Scallops added a touch of coastal familiarity.

The meal transitioned to a plated salad featuring farm greens with matchstick apple and celery ribbons dressed in cider vinaigrette, a nod to the simple yet refreshing tastes of Maine’s harvest season. The buffet dinner showcased steaming Maine Lobsters and Clams, Corn on the Cob, and Boiled Maine Red Potatoes, creating a feast that was both a tribute to local traditions and a celebration of global leadership.
