Casino Royale ... Sep 24th 2007

September 24, 2007 Saturday night I was busying away at a charity dinner party I had donated to the Limbs for Life charity. The dinner party was at a beautiful home in Dallas and I have never seen such a fabulous display of china outside Buckingham Palace. The hostess had laid the table "royale" style. I say royale and not royal because it was a James Bond Casino Royale theme. The guests arrived in three vintage Rolls Royces, Bond music blared out as they entered the house and were each given vesper martini's served by "Bond girls" - Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Next it was into the casino for 30 minutes to play for a weekends use of a new Bentley and then into dinner. It was a fun night and my thanks go to Allison Brushaber of TurboChef who helped me in the kitchen for the evening. Special thanks to the hosts and also to the people that bought the dinner. It raised $10,000 - that in itself will buy three new limbs. An evening well spent. by Darren McGrady www.theroyalchef.com/
