Neuman’s Kitchen X James Beard Foundation

Neuman’s Kitchen X James Beard Foundation
Step into a Neuman’s Kitchen – Events & Catering Special Event!

This year Neuman’s Kitchen had the pleasure of exclusively hosting the VIP Chefs & Champagne®  afterparty and launching our business out in the Hamptons!

Chefs & Champagne is the James Beard Foundation’s annual summer tasting party, featuring flowing Champagne and culinary offerings from a select group of  40 celebrated chefs. The event raises funds for the philanthropic work of the James Beard Foundation and hosted at the Wolffer Estate Vineyard. This year they honored multiple James Beard Award–winning chef, author, philanthropist, and restaurateur Chef John Besh.

Take a look at the video for a behind the scenes look at all the fun we had!

 

  Our executive Chef Robb Garceau curated the perfect summertime menu serving up Poke Bowls, BBQ Sliders and Summer Shortcakes for over 500 VIP guest. We kept our guest cool with Watermelon Champagne Ice Pops! At the end of the night, all our guest went home with a bag of our house-made Quinoa Granola
