Submitted by on Tuesday, 9 March 2010No Comment

Last night, the GMHC presented SAVOR, an awesome culinary event at Gotham Hall with a menu prepared by seven of New York City’s top chefs!  Hosted by Ted Allen of the Food Network’s “Chopped”, the evening featured a cocktail reception and live auction, followed by dinner, and Passing the Whisk:  The Ultimate Culinary Relay featuring the judges from Chopped!  GMHC Lifetime Achievement Awards were given to Yvette Burton, Global Business Development Executive for IBM and Philanthropist and Theatrical Producer, Ted Snowdon for their outstanding contributions to the organization. 

Chris Santos of The Stanton Social, Marc Murphy of Landmarc, and Scott Conant from Scarpetta provided delectable hor d’oeuvres for the cocktail portion of the evening and dinner was a gastronomical dream in four courses!  The first course was a yummy Grilled Octopus with a salad of cucumber, celery, mint, feta cheese, and fingerling potatoes prepared by Amanda Freitag of The Harrison, followed by Cavatappi Pasta with Yellow Tomato Sauce and Lamb Sausage from Alex Guarnaschelli of Butter.  The main entree was melt-in-your-mouth Braised Shortribs with Ancho Chilli Sauce Pozole gingerly prepared by Paladar’s Aaron SanchezGeoffrey Zakarian wowed us with a dessert of Country Chocolate Tart with Bourbon topped with fresh whipped cream!  More than seventeen hours later, I am STILL stuffed!
