Summer is officially here and I?m happy to recap the next NYC food fest ? the 3rd annual Saveur Mag Summer BBQ! Outgrowing last year?s venue The Frying Pan, this year the BBQ was held at the 79th St Boat Basin on the Upper West Side. I got to hang out and taste the dishes of some of the country?s finest chefs ? Chris Cosentino, Aron Sanchez, Anita Lo, Susan Feniger, Francois Payard & more.
The boat basin
Opening up the event was the masala spice rubbed lambchops by the chefs of DC?s Indique Heights.
Spicy lambchop with a cooling sweet mango chutney and cilantro sauce.
Next up was a BBQ tri-tipped sandwich with shaved fennel salad and garlic aioli by Damon Wise of The Monkey Bar.
[Not fried] Chicken and waffles by NY Brewery Ommegang, the events? beer sponsor.
Hi Susan Feniger of Top Chef Masters and chef owner of Cali?s STREET. Cutest woman ever.
Susan?s noodle and steak dish was one of the biggest hits of the event ? she kept running out of noodles due to popular demand! They were cold and spicy and refreshing on a hot summer eve.
My new BFF, Susan.
Pick up her latest cookbook, Street Food for this noodle recipe and many others inspired from the street foods of her global adventures.
Cafe Boulud?s shrimp and polenta.
Chef owner of Annisa, Anita Lo brought a pork jerky and green papaya salad to this potluck party.
Chef Shea Gallante was grilling fresh Maine lobster to perfection.
Grilled lobster with onions and pepper jam.
Grilled octopus from Tertulia?s Seamus Mullen. Who knew.
These pickled vegetables were delightful, btw.
Hello Anita Lo!
Hola, Aron Sanchez.
After mucho food and drink, it was dessert time. The Sussman bros created a panko fried peanut butter cheesecake treat that I ate in 2.2 seconds.
They were promoting their new cookbook, This is a Cookbook. Their mama must be proud.
This is Francois Payard?s macaron and milkshake, quite the killer combo.
Ending the night in the arms of James Oseland, Saveur mag?s editor in chief and host of TOP CHEF MASTERS!
