The Piscataqua Chapter of the American
Culinary Federation invites you to be a participating restaurant/vendor at our
“Great Chefs Tasting Party” to be held on Sunday January 25th
from 5:00 to 8:00 pm at the Regatta Banquet and Conference Center in Eliot
Maine. This event, similar in concept to Taste of the Nation events where
participating restaurants provide samplings of their specialties, benefits the ACF
Piscataqua chapter’s scholarship and educational programming as well as other
local nonprofits that help us with the event.
Each participating restaurant will be
provided with a skirted 8’ front table and back table if desired, access to the
conference center’s kitchens and electricity if needed. There is no fee to participate.You may come to set up any time after noon
and we will have culinary students on hand to help you during the event.We also provide china plates, silverware and
cocktail napkins for your table.
We are expecting between three to four
hundred guests for this year’s event. We are hoping to have between 20 and 30
restaurants/culinary programs participate so if everyone just does a “small
bite” that should be plenty of food for everyone.In addition to the food, we will feature a
raffle and a live chef’s auction offering our guests an opportunity to bid from
a variety of culinary auction packages. We would love for your chef to be one of our
“auction packages” as well!
Deadline for participating is January 15, 2015.Please contact Perrin H. Long (603-436-0308) perrinhlong@comcast.net to reserve your space.
