On Sunday evening The Dish On Dallas was invited to attend the Cotes du Coeur Chef Announcement Party presented by the American Heart Association. The event was held at the Addison Conference Center and was just lovely. Richard Chamberlain is the Cotes du Coeur founding Chef and seems to truly donate his time and his talents to this honorable cause. Also present at this chef-studded event were David Holben (Del Frisco’s), Kevin Garvin (Neiman Marcus), and Jim Sevenson (Sevy’s Grill), and Blythe Beck (Central 214).
As you can see from the pictures, there was a wine station with an offering of red or white. There was also a cocktail station that featured St. Germain liqueur. The food was an amazing treat: smoked pork tenderloin with caramelized onions and apples, prime rib eye with a Bearnaise sauce, and poached salmon with lemon aioli. The presentation was eye catching and each dish was unique.
I had a great evening and learned a lot about the Cotes du Coeur Dallas chapter. If you are looking to get involved check out http://www.dallaswineauction.com/ for more information.
