Last Friday, members of the Westchester #FoodieNation kicked off the holidays in style with food, drinks, and fun at Empire City Casino’s two amazing event spaces—the VIP Lounge and Alley 810 (for some bowling!). The photo recap of the event is below. For more images of the event, visit IntoxiKate: Living Life Deliciously on Facebook!
The first half of the party was hosted in the casino’s VIP Lounge. I took a snapshot before guests arrived… Seriously, how beautiful is this space?!?!
Chefs at the casino prepared quite the feast—an antipasto, charcuterie and cheese station was set up in one corner. The other corner featured root beer pulled pork sliders, prawn Caesar shooters, butternut squash with truffle squash chutney, and miniature grilled cheese. Above features an #Intoxikate favorite! Loved the presentation of these scallops in a shell.
In addition to the stationary food set up in the VIP Lounge, guests also dined on roasted tomato and asparagus arancini, herb gremolata crusted lamb chops, spice and coffee rubbed pork tenderloin with Baileys cream drizzle, zesty chicken lollipops, and Thai chicken skewers.

When I first visited the casino and saw the Alley 810 event space, I knew I had to host an IntoxiKate event there. This beautiful space is so versatile, offering guests dancing, lounging, and bowling (and a private bar)! Super chic and super fun.
Just a few of the desserts from Pinch American Grill, just one of the onsite eateries at the casino.
The golden sugar crystallizes before your eyes as staff finished the miniature crème brûlées on site. {An IntoxiKate fav!}
IntoxiKate picked up a spare at the casino’s event space Alley 810, complete with private bar, plenty of couches for lounging, space for a DJ and dancing, and a bowling alley!
