March 15: Chefs collab, American-style, at The Corner
Filed Under: Chef Salad | Food Events
John Taus, who just took over exec chef duties at The Corner (102 S. 13th St.) is already ready to bring it — he's organized a chef's collaboration dinner, scheduled for Tuesday, March 15, centered around "modern takes on American comfort food." Participating this time around with Taus — David Katz (Mémé), Peter Woolsey (Bistrot La Minette) and charcuterie dude Andrew Wood (Fork), plus Matt Levin of Adsum, a newcomer to the chef-collab circuit. (The rest of these dudes, in various combos, have pulled off plenty of crazy concept meals, ranging from pig dinners and French bistro interpretations to mullet-wigged odes to the Jersey Shore.) No official word on menu items just yet, but we do know that Woolsey's in charge of dessert.
There will be two seatings of the dinner, at 6 and 8:30 p.m., and seats will run you $50 a pop. Call 215-735-7500 to reserve.
UPDATE: Taus says he'll be doing sweetbreads and crawfish with tasso ham ragu and pickled jalapeno grits for the dinner. ON IT!
UPDATE [02mar11]: And here's Katz's dish: "Cochon du lait," with black-eyed pea/ham hock stew, fried Brussels sprouts, Creole mustard and green tomato marmalade.
