a year of dining at some of the city’s best restaurants – reservations and gift certificates!
A “Top Chef” Dinner prepared in your home for 12 guests by the chefs from the show – Including that yummy Ryan Scott and super-talented Jen Biesty. Jardiniere restaurant donated the wine pairings, too. Bravo TV kicked in actual chef coats used on the show for the winners to keep (the cheftestants admitted even they didn’t get to keep their own coats), and they doubled the prize at the end, raising more than $20k.
The best item we’ve bought: a week at a chateau in Bordeaux complete with wine tours, chef events, etc. Still haven’t used it, but excited to do so!
Strangest item I’ve ever seen but really wanted: a weekly delivery of farm fresh eggs. Ummmmmmmm.
A 2010 South Africa trip – complete with World Cup tickets, a safari trip and a chance to meet Nelson Mandela. and a kiss from Charlize Theron went for $140,000.-
At the OneXOne charity event at Bimbo’s.
The Four Season Bali and the 4 Seasons Singapore, all inclusive.
A Salon package to Bliss!
a ‘big fat greek dinner’ party, complete with greek dancers as the entertainment!
