You can check out more details about the event on the Arthritis Foundation’s blog. There’s quite the collection of live and silent auction items, including an opportunity to go to a taping of Iron Chef America! You have to be invited to attend a taping of the show, so that is quite the experience for a very lucky bidder to win!
Rumor has it that VIP Lounge tickets are sold out, but you can still buy general admission passes!
Which of these restaurants or menu items would you be most interested in trying? I’m giddy about Parallax’s offerings!
For me it’s gotta be the Smiley cookies from Eat N Park. lol Actually a lot of it sounds interesting and delicious, except for the sushi. I don’t go that way. I’m sure Phil will be all over the Hyde Park selection. It’s meat and potatoes! Can’t wait.
Seriously, almost all of the dishes sound fantastic- so I am not going to pick just one. Which I don’t have to, because I’ll be there! Looking forward to it. Good luck!
Shuhei is my absolute favorite restaurant, so naturally any of their sushi 🙂
Um, Table45 please…drooling now
