I love putting on special dining events. I’ve cooked a traditional Norooz dinner for a sold out crowd of fifty at Jimmy’s No. 43 in the East Village, served a four-course dinner out a of makeshift kitchen under the stars for 30 seated guests in a boutique in the Catskills, and even pulled off a “masked meal” event for upwards of sixty blindfolded adventurers at an arts event. I like taking on challenges where I can learn something, too, and collaborate creatively with my hosts, so if you have an idea for an inspired food event, send it my way.
