ALDEA PRESENTS:  PASTRY CHEFS COOK SAVORY!
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH, 2010
 
     On Sunday, September 26th, chef George Mendes continues his Guest Chef Dinner series at ALDEA and opens up the kitchen to some of his buddies, who happen to be four of NYC's most lauded pastry chefs. This time there's a bit of a twist: each of these pastry chefs will cook one savory course inspired by dishes on the Aldea menu, while Mendes will try his hand at dessert.

The menu includes five courses plus wine pairings from Bayfield Importing, featuring champagne from Duval Leroy.

 $150 per person, the pastry chef line-up is as follows:

First course: Alex Stupak, wd-50

Second course: Johnny Iuzzini, Jean-Georges
 
Third course: Brooks Headley, Del Posto
 
Fourth course: Michael Laiskonis, Le Bernardin
 
Dessert: George Mendes, Aldea
 
To make your reservation, please call ALDEA directly: 212.675.7223

A very special cocktail hour featuring Jamie Gordon of Pernod Ricard and Johnny Iuzzini  starts at 6; dinner proper at 7 pm.

We hope you can join us!!
