For the second year in a row, Patina Restaurant Group Chef and Founder Joachim Splichal returns with his esteemed Patina Catering division to serve elevated Californian cuisine. The menu gives guests the opportunity to indulge in four different stations inspired by the mystical, fairy-inhabited forests and enchanted settings portrayed in William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The menu was designed using sustainable local California ingredients with flavors inspired by the music and the artists who create it. Leftover edible food from the GRAMMY Celebration is donated to local food banks and all cooking oil used for the event will be recycled.
