  • 2012 Taste of Greenwich House

    Chefs are sharpening their knives and pulling out their best recipes to feature at the 10th Anniversary of A Taste of Greenwich House on Monday, March 12, 2012, at the Metropolitan Pavilion – all in the name of supporting Greenwich House’s 12 social service and arts programs, including treatment for victims of child abuse, medical care for home-bound seniors, afterschool arts, therapy for those living with HIV and AIDS and many other services needed in New York.

     

    This year, Chef Joey Campanaro of The Little Owl will join forces with Bruce Sanderson, Senior Editor, Wine Spectator, at the VIP lounge to kick off an evening of the best eats east of the Hudson River.  They will be joined by over 30 other New York restaurants to raise funds to serve New Yorkers in need. Come to meet Mike Price, Market Table; Chris Siversen, Maritime Parc; Jonathan Waxman, Barbuto, and many more if you fancy a fabulous feast.

     

    VIP Chef Joey Campanaro says, “I am proud to be a part of A Taste of Greenwich House. Not only is it an opportunity for people to have a unique culinary experience, but it is a true community event that emphasizes how we can each use our talents for the greater good. Greenwich House provides so much to New York; it is fulfilling to be able to support them on this special night.”

     

    A lucky silent auction winner can extend the evening by attending an exclusive after-party pig roast for participating chefs, hosted by Chef Campanaro at his new space The Little Owl: The Venue.

     

    Through the generosity of the restaurants and other supporters who give so graciously of their time and services each year, A Taste of Greenwich House has grown into one of the premiere tasting events of the season where each guest can eat and do good.
