Dish du Jour Magazine is hosting a series of winter tasting events in Astoria and Long Island City. Benjamas Taste of Thai will be kicking off this series with a four-course tasting menu and even some neat food demonstrations, courtesy of Chef Chatchai. This will be an active dinner and you might pick up some tricks along the way, as you watch Chef Chatchai make flowers from vegetables and showcase his carving skills. You'll also taste a variety of Thai beers that will be paired with your meal.
Besides the all the food and drink, there will surely be time for meeting, greeting and networking. And don't forget to bring a can of food with you! Dish du Jour will be donating these to a local pantry to help those in need during cold, winter months.
Here are the rest of the details:

Sounds like it would be a good time, but don't you think it's a bit expensive? Or am I just cheap?
ReplyDeleteIt "sounds" expensive but I think that it isn't too bad for a four course meal (including drinks) and even some expert advice/skills from the chef. It's an opportunity to mix and mingle and meet people with common interests. When you think about it that way, I think that the price is right.
