DINNER FOR 10? PERFECT.

The Dish

Sep

2010

Who doesn’t love being catered to? Whether it’s a sommelier who really “gets you” or a waiter who actually communicates your special order, it just makes for a better night out. At Taste of the Nation, catering to your every need is the name of the game.

You pay your $150 (ALL of which goes to Share Our Strength). Then you head to Sanctuary Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa on September 26. You sit down at your table for 10. And then, you’re ensconced firmly in the hands of one of 11 chefs who each cook a specific 5-course meal for their paired 10-top. It’s like a private dinner for a group, if that makes any sense. And it’s all paired with wine. Here are some of the 11 chefs:

Beau “I’m a G-damn Food Network staahh” MacMillan, elements
Josh “My name rhymes with Posh!” Hebert, Posh
Sean “Are you really change-ordering the blue-plate special?” Currid, Café ZuZu
Aaron “Really, you want a Sasquatch Burger? At this dinner?” May, Iruna
Mel “I’m the fifth season of cuisine, damnit” Mecinas, Talavera
Marc “My favorite drink is” Hennessy, BLT Steak
Lee “The secret ingredient, Miss, is my bloody English accent” Hillson, T. Cook’s
Benjamin “I can do so much more than toss your salad” Brunson, Market Bistro

Take a look here for more info: strength.org. Can you believe tickets are only $150? Really, it sounds like a great deal. You can upgrade for a VIP cocktail hour with a bartender show for another $100. Dinner starts at 6pm. Cocktails about an hour or so before.
