- 1. Q What makes a successful summer soirée? A The company foremost, then crafting something intimate and personal. I always make sure I have the same three elements: good food, music and mood lighting. Q Foodanddrinkphilosophy? A Creating contrasts—it’s a more powerful effect. I like pairing a sweet wine with spicy food, or a dessert with something spicy and herbaceous, even nutty. Q Summer soundtrack? A A cool mix of soul, hip-hop and jazz. It’s almost background music, but it’ll make you move. Q Best party vibe? A Ambience is key. I like a dimly lit room powered by candlelight for a more intimate mood, and something unexpected, like a make your own cocktail station. Q Entertaining tips? A The type of food you serve shouldn’t be sloppy—with the exception of ribs. Those are always good. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Open to Canada residents, 25 or older. Ends: 11:59 PM ET on July 31, 2015.
