Sundance Spotlight: A Taste Of Chefdance

No winter blizzard was going to keep the team from Le Bec Fin in Philadelphia from cooking up a storm in the kitchen for Monday's exclusive Chefdance dinner at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival.

Chefdance - Chef Perrier - Sundance 2016 - Jesse EinsteinAlthough the star of the evening, world renowned Chef Georges Perrier was stranded in Philadelphia, the rest of his team adeptly served a delicious meal to the Sundance crowd. In attendance were cast and crew of the newly sold Sundance film Equity, members of Tao Group (of the infamous Sundance Tao Club pop-up), and the Greater Philadelphia Film Office (sponsors of the evening).

Chef Perrier, who is recognized as the Grandfather of French cuisine, certainly knows how to make a delicious sauce— I was dying to soak up the rest of the Coq au Vin's flavorful red wine sauce with a roll. The other highlight of the meal was dessert, Ile Flotante, a delicious Vanilla Crème Anglaise with a delicate, crunchy, ring of caramel floating on top of the meringue. Delish!
