Chef Michael Gettier - Antrim 1844
All the glitz and glamour was out tonight at Martin’s West at the Restaurant Association of Maryland Industry Awards. This black tie affair annually brings Maryland’s restaurateurs together to share good food, war stories and pat themselves on the back.
The walk about appetizers had me munching from raw bar to Ra Sushi. The delicious apps were from AIDA Bistro, Big Fish Grille, Buddy’s Crabs and Ribs, The Classic Catering People – Raw Bar, The Crab Shanty, Glory Days Grill, Lebanese Taverna, The Pantry Personal Fine Cuisine, Red Sky Steak & Fish House, RA Sushi, The Rumor Mill and Yellowfin Steak and Fish House. I indulged in a vodka martini from the 42Below Vodka Ice Bar. So many familiar faces, the usual cast of media characters to share my table and mucho food.
