Top Chef finalist and culinary expert Sam Talbot will kick off Vintage Irving’s Celebrity Chef Tasting Dinners on Wednesday September 24th with an original four-course tasting dinner with wine pairings.  Talbot is the first of a number of nationally acclaimed culinary figures that will be joining Vintage Irving’s executive chef Jason Bunin and the Vintage Irving team on a quarterly basis to host unique and educational tasting events in the intimate setting of the restaurant’s private tasting room.
 
Vintage Irving’s owner, Michael Sinensky, is implementing this exciting culinary program to expose his patrons and the New York community to one-time only events that they might otherwise not have the chance to partake in.  Vintage Irving is a newly opened restaurant elevating the New York dining experience by presenting seasonal, local ingredients inflected with the culinary styles, preparations and flavors from all over Europe and the Mediterranean in a “small-plate” manner, ideal for sharing, at an affordable price. Staying in theme with the restaurant’s mission, the Celebrity Chef Tasting Dinners program will further allow guests to expand their cultural and culinary awareness in an informal, comfortable setting with excellent wines, welcoming service and warm company, all part of the Vintage Irving experience.
 
Sam Talbot will be cooking and presenting a four-course, seafood-inspired meal using local produce sourced from the Union Square Green Market.  Each course will be paired with wine and champagne. Tickets, $150 per person, are currently on sale and based on availability.  Space for each event is limited to 60 seats.  Vintage Irving is located at 118A East 15th Street.
