Best Food Week Ever – Part Deux

The Star Chefs Revue was extremely well attended last night — at least a couple hundred foodies by our count.

> Adam Sobel’s Wisconsin cheese-stuffed potato dumpling soup;
> Joe Isidori’s Chinese spiced short ribs;
> Anthony Amoroso’s pancetta-wrapped quail with almond foam;
> Amanda Gager’s cocktails (that were not for the feeble!)

Tonight: The Michelin Guide reception at Wynn.  Stay tuned.
