Hi Michael, thanks! I am sure it will be one hell of a night. Can't wait. I think we are just about sold out. I will be posting photos and details afterwards. Have been doing some cool demos and development of the dishes and concepts yet leaving some area for cooking of the moment at the dinner. Stay tuned for more info soon. Best, Bill
