With Food Network's NYC Wine & Food Festival passing us this weekend, Manhattan foodies are asking, "What's next?" If you are looking for celebrity chefs and amazing food you might want to mark 11/07/09 on your calendar.
On Saturday, November 7th, Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa will present the second-annual SAVOR BORGATA – An Evening with Borgata Chefs – at The Water Club. Tickets for the exclusive culinary event went on sale last Saturday (October 10th).
This year, each restaurant will be represented with their own culinary station, offering guests the rare opportunity to sample signature menu items and interact with celebrated chefs Wolfgang Puck (Wolfgang Puck American Grille), Bobby Flay (Bobby Flay Steak), Michael Mina (SEABLUE, A Michael Mina Restaurant), Michael Schulson (Izakaya – A Modern Japanese Pub), Stephen Kalt (FORNELLETTO Cucina & Wine Bar), Geoffrey Zakarian (The Water Club at Borgata), Romeo DiBona (Old Homestead Steak House), Ron Ross (Borgata Executive Chef) and Thaddeus DuBois (Borgata Executive Pastry Chef). Wine pairings will be made by Olympic gold medalist Peggy Fleming’s Fleming Jenkins Vineyards & Winery.
Less than a month ago I wrote on Chelsea Handler being spotted eating her way around the Borgata restaurants with her boyfriend Ted Harbert (CEO of Comcast).
“Since its debut, Borgata has been committed to providing diverse, innovative and world-class dining experiences to Atlantic City,” said Nicolas Kurban, VP of Food and Beverage for Borgata. “Savor Borgata reinforces this commitment by providing our customers with the experience of sampling mouth-watering dishes and mingling with several of America’s most beloved chefs at an unforgettable affair.”
Offering everything from chic Italian to modern Japanese fare all under one roof, Borgata’s wide array of restaurants presents guests with a one-of-a-kind culinary experience complete with an extensive wine collection of over 24,000 vintages.
Traveling to Atlantic City is easier than ever these days with the launch of the ACES train, a joint venture between Caesars Atlantic City, Harrah's Resort Atlantic City, and Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa. ACES offers a direct transportation option between New York City and New Jersey that was not available before February 2009. Be prepared to travel in style with a private lounge for rent, leather seating and a number of dining options.
Savor Borgata will be 7pm-9pm inside The Water Club at Borgata. Tickets cost $125 per person and can be purchased on their site or by calling 1 (866) 900-4TIX (4849). For room reservations and Savor Borgata package information call (866) MY-BORGATA.
