Dinner at the James Beard House, NYC

Well, my sister entered me in a contest for a two night stay in New York and a dinner at the James Beard house and I won!

We head to NYC tomorrow for a fabulous dinner at the JBH and two nights playing in New York.

Cross your fingers the weather holds!

Anyone ever eaten at the James Beard House? How was it?

Hey congrats! I’m not trying to be a Debbie Downer here, but the weather actually is pretty bad right now. We’re under a winter storm warning until Saturday morning, and a lot of schools are closed tomorrow. How are you planning on coming in?

Yeah- we’ve been watching the weather! Not pleased.

We’re coming into Grand Central on Metro North from Connecticut.

Congrats. I [del]hate[/del] envy you your win. Looks like this is your menu Sat. night. WARNING, pdf, I think! Two glasses of wine with each course(that’s what I read).

We’re actually having the Friday night dinner- Mushrooms is the theme! I adore mushrooms!!!

Must be a different guy. The James Beard I (sorta) know lives in Texas, and isn’t really known for his cooking. :cool:

Off to our dinner! The snow was not a big deal, our hotel is great and dinner is soon!

Yay!

Again, while I [del]hate[/del] envy you, you MUST report about what happened.

Just got back. Deliriously happy and full. Will give a full report tomorrow.
And I got a cool goodie bag- bottle of champagne, chocolates, a James Beard cookbook and more.
