Catering giant "rhubarb" wowed hundreds of the planet's top chefs and food critics at the S Pellegrino World's 50 Best Restaurants awards held at the Guildhall on Monday night (26 April).
Chosen to produce the food for the first time for arguably the most critical guests it is ever likely to serve, "rhubarb" rose to the task superbly.
A canape and champagne reception that featured culinary delights such as quails eggs with a selection of dipping salts, slow braised short rib beef wrapped in lardo with truffled cauliflower puree, brochettes of monkfish with bonito flakes and honey miso dip and Scottish lobster with a spicy Bloody Mary creme fraiche and Mottra Osetra caviar, was enjoyed by everyone.
After this guests got to enjoy the run down of the world's top 50 restaurants before moving into the Guidhall's Crypt space for an after party that featured a variety of cocktails from Bacardi Brown-Forman Brands and bowl food dishes from "rhubarb" that included loin of lamb, Scottish scallop and sticky beef.
Organised by Restaurant magazine the Danish eaterie Noma scooped the top prize, while the event itself was the must-have ticket in London that night (26 April).
Plans for Londonlaunch:LIVE 2010 were unveiled to a packed house at Gallery Mess at the Saatchi Gallery last night. More than 80 top decision-makers from London’s hottest venues and event service companies were present to hear from the London Launch team, and guests were treated to some delicious "rhubarb" food design canapés.
The londonlaunch:LIVE event is taking place at the Saatchi Gallery on 20th and 21st October 2010, will feature over 150 exhibitors, and is expected to attract over 2000 key buyers from London’s event scene. Running across 12 London galleries in the City, West End, Westminster, Southbank and Greater London areas, each event area will have its own unique look, feel and audiovisual experience.
Of particular interest was the design of the event, which is being put together by award-winning interior design and visual merchandising specialists to naturally complement the stunning visual strengths and natural flow of the Galleries involved, with the exhibiting companies being featured on specially created ‘canvases’.
