ATLANTA, GA – Taste of Atlanta’s highly anticipated event, Culinaire, a global food experience and amuse bouche to Atlanta’s highly anticipated October food extravaganza, has been postponed until June 4.
“Due to a delay in the event permitting, Culinaire produced by Taste of Atlanta at the World of Coca-Cola has been moved to a later date. We are thrilled to offer this unique international food event and look forward to sharing this taste experience,” said Taste of Atlanta Founder and Event Director Dale DeSena.
The NEW World of Coca-Cola is the perfect setting for this “world of food” celebration. For all you eager epicureans, Culinaire will surely satisfy that appetite for delectable cuisine, as some of the Atlanta’s favorite international restaurants will serve up their most diverse dishes of specialties spanning the globe. From Mexico to Switzerland, India to Italy, America and beyond, Culinaire has a flair for exceptional international flavors to please your palate. And that comes in liquid form too! Bold American/Fifth Group Restaurants will be providing a special concoction - a mix of the many beverages Coca-Cola offers from around the world “stir-fried” with dry ice, alcohol and garnished with frozen grapes. With musical entertainment, lively spirits and a very special silent auction benefiting the Atlanta Chapter of Les Dames d’Escoffier, Culinaire will surely be a memorable occasion.
“Culinaire is all about tasting food from all over the world, and what better place for this than the NEW World of Coke,” commented DeSena. “It will be a delicious grand tasting event - a little preview of what can be sampled at the 7th Annual Taste of Atlanta food festival in October!”
Culinaire is partnering with Les Dames d’Escoffier International (LDEI), a worldwide society of women promoting the achievement of women in culinary professions through educational and charitable activities. Their mission is to mentor women in the profession, educate the public about the pleasures and virtues of the table, award scholarships and support food related charitable organizations. Culinaire will support these goals and endeavors by donating 100% of the auction proceeds to Les Dames d’Escoffier, Atlanta Chapter.
The featured silent auction items are fifty unique Fashion Plates, each a white porcelain canvas, of sorts, where local and national celebrities such as restaurateurs, radio and television hosts and musicians will be able to add their mark to this artistic medium.
A list of participating restaurants and other exciting details will be released in the coming months.
Culinaire is a Taste of Atlanta production.
