AlwaysPartying: Great Gathering of Chefs
The Hungry Goat — September 26, 2008
Billed as the “largest gathering of chefs anywhere,” last night’s Great Gathering of Chefs saw many of the city’s big-name restaurants bring on a wealth of big-time flavor. The theme of the event, which benefitted The Children’s Storefront, was soup and dessert, and the grand space in the Prince George Ballroom was divided accordingly. We began our tasting on a sweet note, as it was the spread of dessert samples that first greeted us. Buddakan’s deliciously sour Concord Grape Noodles showcased innovative technique, while Olana’s Pumpkin Cheesecake perfectly encapsulated the flavors of Fall. Of the selection of savory soups at the other end of the room, Gilt impressed with a tangy Swiss Ale Cheese Soup, and Telepan’s Kielbasa and Cabbage Soup was a sophisticated take on a comfort classic.
