Get ready, Boston – Barbara Lynch is throwing two spectacular, (culinary) star-studded parties. On Thursday, February 6th, Menton hosts an exclusive Relais & Chateaux Grand Chef Gala dinner with some the most prestigious and talented chefs in the industry. The evening begins with exquisite hors d’oeuvres and aperitifs followed by a seated five-course dinner featuring masterfully paired wines and dishes created by renowned chefs including Barbara Lynch, Daniel Boulud, Gary Danko, Kristen Kish, Patrick O’Connell and Michael Tusk. The event begins at 6:30pm with a reception, followed by dinner at 7:00pm. Tickets, which are limited, are $1,000 each. Email inquires and requests to info@barbaralynch.org.
Following the stellar festivities at Menton, The Barbara Lynch Foundation will host a Toques & Tonic gala on Friday, February 7th at The Boston Children’s Museum. Fit for even the most insatiable of Boston’s epicurean community, the evening of fantastic flavors includes small plate stations manned by some of the most recognized chefs from Boston and around the country including Daniel Boulud, David Chang, Michael Voltaggio, Jamie Bissonnette, Tim & Nancy Cushman, Scott Jones, Kristen Kish, Barbara Lynch and Ana Sortun. There’ll also be a bevy of drink stations with craft cocktails and wine mixed, shaken, stirred and poured by the likes of Dale DeGroff, Jackson Cannon, Brother Cleve, John Gertsen and Misty Kalkofen. And there’e more: live and silent auctions, dancing to the beats of TJ Connolly, the Official DJ of the Boston Red Sox, and a few special surprises. The festivities begin at 6:30pm with a VIP Reception, followed by the main event at 7:30pm. Tickets, the VIP variety (which include the reception and the main event) and regular, are available online.
Proceeds from both events benefit The Barbara Lynch Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing leadership and resources to build essential life skills for Boston’s underprivileged youth.
