For the past 6 years Gourmet magazine has been hosting this annual event to benefit the American Institute of Wine and Food. As they are dedicated to culinary education it should be a great night. Demos from Achatz, Moulton, Cantu and Paskewitz should be very interesting.

These "functions" (that’s a misnomer) are a great opportunity to get a sampling of a wide variety of food and wine. For $100 it’s a steal which is likely why it’s sold out.
