Flash back to 1957 – Les Gourmets was a Buffet Dinner Dance with a theme of the Gay Nineties which included an elaborate Appetizer Buffet in the Red Cedar Room and a breathtaking Dinner Buffet in the Big 10 Room, followed by dramatic and musical entertainment and dancing to a live orchestra, all decorated elaborately and beautifully, including ice carvings and individual table decorations.
The next year brought a “Night in Blue Hawaii” complete with authentic Hawaiian food, chaired by yours truly, a little grass hut and four “Hula Girls” – actually one student chef, one Michigan State University football player and 2 other honored Les Gourmets men who performed the hula in costume complete with coconut tops.
