Happy Holidays from DLG!

In the spirit of the holidays and the wonderful winter weather, we gathered for a delightful breakfast. While enjoying our meal and engaging in personalized DLG bingo and word search games, we cherished the true virtue of this special time of year: gratitude. We feel immense appreciation for our truly extraordinary clients and our dedicated staff who work tirelessly to keep everything running smoothly. From all of us at Daryanani Law Group, we wish you a joyous and delightful holiday season!

DLG Holiday Party 2019

We held our annual holiday party at the Institute of Culinary Education (aka ICE, but not to be confused with the other ICE) in downtown Manhattan again this year, and the results were as fun and delicious as always. As before, we chose a seasonal menu and divided up into groups to work at three different food stations to make the appetizer, main dish, and dessert. Although a few of us were skeptical to begin with (ahem, Alexis on the far right), enabled by the pink champagne, we quickly become experts in our chosen specialty, (see Alexis presenting the cooked fish and Tommy inspecting the group’s efforts,) resulting in a memorable meal. We are truly talented cooks. Okay, we also had some (very) valuable help from Chef Phil Hering and his skilled team. Happy holidays, everyone!

Birthdays, Presents, and Parties!

This week was a whirlwind at the firm. We celebrated four December birthdays (happy birthday to Briana, Ashley, Gaby, and Adrianna!), exchanged gifts with our “Secret Holiday Friends,” and held our annual DLG Holiday Party at the Institute of Culinary Education where we made some delicious herb and cheese raviolis, New York strip steak with twice-fried frites and charred broccoli, and a lovely pumpkin tart with a ginger cookie crumb crust and caramel whipped cream. (Okay, we had a few drinks too.) It was a lot of activity but totally worth it. Now we just need a nap. And an eggnog.

DLG Holiday Party 2017

This year instead of our usual cooking event at the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE), we held an in-office potluck. We each brought a favorite holiday food or a food celebrating our heritage. Food included kugel with cornflakes from Liz, Scandinavian cardamom bread with candy cane icing (yum!) from Alexis, salpicão (Brazilian chicken salad) and pão de queijo (cheesy bread) from Daniele, sufganiyot (filled doughnuts) and matzo ball soup from Michal, lentils from Matt, Hungarian potato salad and coconut/date cookies from Carolyn, deviled eggs from Olivia, pasta salad from Ashley, miniature Italian pastries from Dana, cookies and cream cake from Briana, cinnamon rolls from Joseph, rosemary potatoes from Alla, brownies from Gaby, and Pio Pio along with the addictive green sauce from Protima. After eating (and drinking), we played several spirited rounds of "Immigration Taboo" (which we created) and then took our own "Immigration, Citizenship, & Geography Quiz." Yes, we do know how to have fun.
