Cooking For The Cure Slideshow
TDM's 1,000 Cooks for the Cure Dinner Party
Cook for the Cure forms were left out in the hallway to encourage guests to make a donation.
Heirloom Tomato and Avocado Bruschetta
Loaves of French bread are evenly topped with an heirloom tomato and avocado mix.
Finishing Touches
Just before serving, the loaves are sprinkled with freshly grated ricotta salata cheese.
Appetizers
Fillet of Beef
A medium-rare fillet of beef was served as one of the two main entrées.
Fillet of Beef Platter
With simplicity as the theme, the fillet was served on its own with roasting juices for a modest and natural flavor.
Lobster Niçoise Salad
Lobster was reinvented at this New England dinner party in the form of a French classic: Niçoise salad.
Lobster with Olives, Green Beans, and Tomatoes
The addition of fresh green beans, tomatoes, olives, and artichokes served as the perfect accompaniment to the herb-marinated and chilled lobster.
