The internet is abuzz with news that Dallas Mavericks player Shawn Marion will host a “Welcome Reception to Dallas” on Jan. 26 for Khloe Kardashian and his new teammates Lamar Odom, Vince Carter, and Delonte West.

I’m sure Tim’s invite is in the mail, as evidenced by the photo above that proves that he is a close, personal friend of Shawn Marion. Here’s what he’ll be eating, according to the just-received press release:

Nick & Sam’s Steakhouse Executive Chef/Partner Samir Dhurandhar is designing the reception’s menu. According to Dhurandhar, “my reception menu will be inspired from the menu of Khloe and Lamar Odom’s wedding. I have contacted my friend, Todd Hatoff from Allen Brothers, who is personally sending us the Wagyu Kobe Beef for the Wagyu sliders. In addition to the sliders, a few ‘for sures’ include my version of chilled heirloom tomato soup with burrata, jumbo shrimp cocktails, our signature fried lobster, lamb chops and other surprises.”

  3. My BM earlier this afternoon also was inspired by Wagyu sliders and is almost as newsworthy — I just forgot to send out the press release.

  4. @JS – um…thanks, but we really didn’t need to know that. TMI. However, you were successful in confirming that my interest in anything Kardashian – let alone a welcome reception menu – equals my interest in your bodily functions.

  5. Not that I have anything against the Kardashians, I don’t, but should they focus the meal around the Mavs players, not ‘one of the Mavericks’ wives’? It’s my belief it should be a team-building dinner, not a Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom themed dinner. Am I alone? I would find it weird if some restaurant themed a meal around my wedding menu. just saying.
