» On June 13, area chefs and restaurateurs joined out-of-town celebrity chefs for the Great Chefs Event 2007. Honored host Osteria cleared its tables for the likes of Jose Garces (Amada, Tinto), Luke Palladino (Ombra, Specchio), Michael Solomonov (Marigold Kitchen), Daniel Stern (Gayle Restaurant, Rae), David Boyle (Davio’s), Marc Vetri (Vetri), Jeffrey Michaud (Osteria), Kiong Bahn (Twenty Manning), Philip Pinkney (The Restaurant School), David Suro (Tequilas Restaurant) and Emilio Mignucci (Di Bruno Bros.), raising a tent to make room for 14 food stations featuring slow-roasted suckling pig, buttered lobster with shortcakes, shrimp and saffron risotto, Kobe beef short ribs, and more. A VIP post-party was held at Davio’s later that night; Osteria hosted the pre-party, preparing dinner for the participating chefs, many of whom closed their own kitchens to attend the event. Proceeds benefited event organizer Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, which raised more than $50,000 to fight childhood cancer.
