I can be a bit of a “princess”, I admit it. But really, what woman wouldn’t love the notion of entertaining guest at her summer villa. Cool drinks, light conversation and of course no soiree is complete without a terrace. You could be suggesting a rousing game of bingo and the simple phrase, “Shall we go to the terrace” makes the invitation that much more alluring. Lincoln Park Young Professionals must have known this because they presented “A Night in Shanghai” on the terrace at The Peninsula Hotel, and all were pleased.
The Peninsula Hotel has been featured consistently as one of Chicago’s top ten hotels. The evening featured delectable desserts, a Manny B. & Co. diamond fashion show (one of his perfect platinum pieces drapes my neck) and a Chinese acrobat performance by Cirque Shanghai at Navy Pier. Me and my girlfriend Ellyse thought the threat of rain would damper the affair, but not so….apparently no one can resist a terrace invite. Thanks to Steve Starr the moment was captured perfectly.
