i was invited to this event by peta, city publicity & knew immediately it was something i really wanted to attend...the five chefs involved in the tasting event & dinner for the starlight children's foundation's signature fundraising event for 2011 are...tony percuoco (tartufo), javier codina (moda), pablo tordesillas (ortiga), mathieu astier (sofitel prive 249) & rhett willis (jellyfish).  all these chefs are excellent at their craft & to be invited to this private, intimate tasting was such a treat & priviledge!

the wine matching was superb (pity i decided to drive!)...& the tasting dishes presented to us that will be served at the event "starlight 5 chef dinner" on monday 6th june included:-
rhett's creation, course 1 assiette, wasabi leaf w mud crab remoulade, tuna tartar w compressed aloe vera, white fish nummus
pablo's creation, course 2 mar y montaña of oysters with pig trotters & stinging nettle picada
mathieu's creation, course 3 warrick lamb, slow roasted lamb loin, butternut puree & toasted quinoa with arabica jus
javier's creation, course 4 duck leg & cassoulet of white beans & chorizo, pear chutney
tony's creation, course 5 semifreddo al torrone - ice cream terrine of hazelnut nougat, marsala & strega liqueur served with an orange syrup

all the above dishes were so delicious & unique in their own right!
