1 Millionth Post Party!

The folks at FoodBuzz threw a great lil' shindig the other day at David Burke Townhouse (formerly David Burke & Donatella -- I know, I was confused too). In celebration of its one millionth post, they gathered all the Featured Publishers together for free-flowing food & drink.

Unfortunately, I managed to miss the first half of the party. It didn't stop me from getting in my requisite food shots though. ;)



I didn't get to try all the passed hors d'oeurves, but I did tackle the raw seafood bar, sushi/sashimi table and of course, the carving station (which you know is good if you see the eponymous chef carving his own serving!). Standouts included the tuna tartare, lobster flan with fresh peas, sliced sirloin au jus and the perfectly juicy roasted turkey.


The signature cocktail of the evening, a mojito-esque lychee martini, was certainly pretty, but the thyme just overwhelmed it all. I stuck to wine afterward. :P

Overall, it was fun catching up with Foodie in Denial and Chicopea, despite the challenges of juggling plate, wine glass and camera! We even got to meet some of the FoodBuzz team (Ryan, our managing editor, has the cutest pixie cut!), which was nice. I wish I had more time to chat with some of the other bloggers, but knowing FoodBuzz, there definitely will be another occasion to get together again soon.

The signature cheesecake lollipops, in a tree! Oh, the whimsy.
