Employee of the MonthApril 2012

MATTHEW KEITH

(Marisu’s Message Corner)

Matthew Keith’s first day on the job at The Athenaeum was through an externship program with Le Cordon Bleu; which after just one shift he was asked to join the staff full-time. Matthew has since been part of The Athenaeum culinary team for nearly ten years and this is his third recognition as Employee of the Month. Even when away from The Athenaeum kitchen, Matthew spends much of his time in his home kitchen experimenting with modern techniques and untraditional flavor combinations. His passion for cooking started as a young child watching the Food Network’s greats and assisting his working parents with evening family meals. Matthew shares that he enjoys seeing the smiles on people faces when served good food. Matthew and his fiancée Nicole are excited for their upcoming wedding on June 30th and honeymoon cruise. They reside in Santa Clarita with their beloved two dachshunds and enjoy the outdoors – biking trails and snowboarding.

Commencement at Caltech comes mid-June, later than most other colleges and universities. We say good-bye and congratulations to the Class of 2012 as they complete their years of learning and studies at Caltech. We bid our graduates best wishes as they make their way into the different fields they’ve studied and trained for.

And, we hope to see everyone back at the Alumni Weekend gatherings hosted by the Alumni Association every May.

One of the most popular Athenaeum events in June is Lobster Night, scheduled on Friday, June 22, this year. Members look forward to the 2-pound lobster that Chef Kevin and his culinary crew prepare that evening. The starter course is a seafood trio that includes oysters Rockefeller, achiote scallop with corn relish and tempura soft shell crab. A second course – mango, avocado, summer tomato terrine – was added this year. Capping dinner is a peach and blackberry crisp with lemon verbena ice cream (one of my absolute favorites). Non-seafood and vegetarian options will also be available.

Before taking a respite from international nights, our last hurrah will be in Paris and Morocco on Mondays, June 4 and 18, respectively. International nights will be back every other Monday in October.

The Family Night barbecues will be featured every other Monday during the summer months. The opening family night barbecue is on June 25 with a Hawaiian theme. Hula dancers and a fire show of a Samoan fire knife dance will highlight the evening’s festivities.

The Rath al Fresco opening signals the start of the summer season at the Athenaeum. The al Fresco has served and continues to be Caltech’s informal social networking venue. Don’t miss the fun, reconnect with old friends and join us daily from 5pm-9pm. Remember no reservations required if your group is 10 or less.

Please join me in congratulating the 6 Athenaeum employees who will be receiving their service awards on June 7. They have all worked at The Athenaeum and Caltech for a total of 115 years!

I look forward to seeing you all at The Athenaeum. Please drop by my office when you are next at the club.

What are the future plans for The Athenaeum?The simplest and most straightforward answer isto build additional suites in the loggia that willmeet the growing demand for hotel suites, andupgrade all of the amenities in our standardrooms. Are you aware that the plumbing in ourstandard rooms is original? As a result, you mayonly get hot or cold water when you turn on theshower. We would also like to modernize ourkitchen and build an extension for a bakery tobetter serve our discerning membership. Our àla carte dinner attendance is increasing, thanks toyou, our members. Most of our equipment isold and no longer working to full capacity. Tomeet the increasing attendance in the diningroom and at banquets our kitchen equipmentneeds to be upgraded. Then, there is our antiquefreight elevator. We have had to perform on-going repairs as it is the only way we are able totransport food, beverages and equipment fromthe basement to the first floor. I could go on…

These are the operational and physicalrequirements of the club and there is no questionthat these are important. However, TheAthenaeum, I believe, is really all about creating"perfect moments" for its members. This is thetradition that we need to carry into the future.

How do we create the perfect moments? I amsure most of you know Samir Abi-Rached, ourbreakfast host. He excels at making memberswho come to breakfast feel at home and at ease.One morning, a member came in and asked forraisin bread. Menus for all meal periods changeperiodically and at this particular time, we nolonger served raisin bread. But to please thismember, Samir took regular white bread,inserted raisins into the bread and placed hisnewly created “raisin” bread into the toaster.Voila! He did not have to go back to themember and say that we no longer serve raisinbread.

In the Hayman Lounge, Andres Martinez,bartender extraordinaire, will have your drinkready for you, even before you ask if you are aregular at his bar. His memory is amazing.

When I first started working here 11 years ago, Iwas surprised that paper place mats were used atlunch at such an elegant dining facility. I wastold that the placemats were an extension of thelab. True enough, I have seen professors with

their students huddled in deep discussionsscribbling notes and formulas on Athenaeumplace mats. At the end of the meal, they wouldwalk away with the placemats in their shirtpockets. We would like to think that we haveprovided the fuel, their lunch, to spark theirdiscovery or resolution to a problem.

Of course, weddings, birthdays, andanniversaries are the ultimate opportunities tocreate perfect moments. Members want to havethese celebrations at The Athenaeum becausethey know we will create not only the perfectmoment for them, but also the perfect day. Onthese occasions, The Athenaeum getstransformed into Neverland – a dreamland fortheir celebration.

Memories and stories like these inspire us tocontinue to excel and to bring to you, ourmembers, the perfect moments. The Athenaeumwill persist to create these perfect moments intothe future.

75 years of good food, good friends and goodtimes. The Athenaeum has been a part of yourfamily, and you are our family. This is a traditionwe would like to continue into the future.

So I ask the question again: what are the futureplans for The Athenaeum? It is quite simple. Weplan to continue in our partnership to ensurethat The Athenaeum delivers to you theexcellence you expect from every aspect of itsoperation – superb meals and outstandingservice during social gatherings or dinner-meetings. We need your moral and financialsupport to participate in our programs andcampaigns to be able to continue into the future.

I’d like to propose a toast – to you our memberswho have supported The Athenaeum throughthe 75 years. Without you this celebration willnot be possible. You have made The Athenaeuma special place and we hope to continue another75 years of perfect moments with good food,good friends and good times. CHEERS!

Notes from the CellarWith warm summer days just around the corner, the Wine Committee is reviewing fruity, crisp and refreshing whites. This month we focus on Sauvignon Blanc (saw-vee-nyonh blahnk), one of the noble grape varieties originally from France. Sauv Blanc is a versatile grape that produces wines ranging from flinty, dry and crisp to world-renown, sweet desert wines. The grape is widely grown in France where it is also known as Sancerre and in California, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and Chile. Typical with flavors including lemon or grapefruit, citrus, melons, tropical fruit and in some cases grassiness and green bell pepper. The wine often is fermented in stainless steel rather than oak to retain crispness and acidity, which make the wine suitable for summer and picnic fare such as salads, fish, chicken, shellfish and all kinds of cheese including goat cheese. Sauvignon Blanc also tend to be good value wines. Some recent Sauv Blancs added to The Athenaeum wine list include:

CaliforniaSauvignon Blanc, Hanna, Russian River, 2010 – $25

Sauvignon Blanc, J Lohr, Carol’s Vineyard, St Helena, 2011 – $30 (Committee Recommendation)

New ZealandSauvignon Blanc, Greywacke, Marlborough, 2010 – $34Sauvignon Blanc, Drylands, Marlborough, 2011 – $30

(Committee Recommendation)

FrancePouilly-Fumé; Michel Redde, La Moynerie, Loire, 2009 – $43

Wine Committee welcomes New Committee Chair

In March, The Athenaeum Wine Committee welcomed Michael Williamson to the position of committee chair. Michael and his wife, Eileen, have been Associate members of The Athenaeum since 2005 and Michael has been an active member of the club’s Wine Committee since 2009. Michael is an attorney, Shareholder and Co-Chair of Buchalter Nemer’s Real Estate Practice Group, and a member of the firm’s Board of Directors.

Athenaeum WeddingJacqueline Jai and Christopher Ballard were married Sunday, December 18, 2011 on the beautiful Olive Terrace, followed by a spectacular evening of cocktails, a delicious buffet dinner, and dancing at The Athenaeum. They specifically chose The Athenaeum

as their wedding venue because they absolutely love the holiday season and the holiday decor at The Athenaeum is magnificent. Jacqueline and Christopher met while working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. After dating for a couple years Christopher proposed while hiking on a scenic Cherry Canyon trail. They now live happily in La Cañada Flintridge with their dog, Felix. Together they enjoy running, hiking, cooking, reading, travelling, and exploring the world! A special thanks to Ben and Betty Jai for making this possible.
