2009 Oct 29 Win Two Tickets to elBulli in Beijing!
It’s one of the culinary events of the year, food fans, and we’ve got two tickets to give away (worth RMB 888 each).
In honor of elBulli chef Albert Adrià’s visit to Beijing, and to celebrate the impact of Spanish cuisine across the world, Chef’s Brian McKenna of ROOMbmk and Da Dong of Da Dong Beijing Roast Duck Restaurants will be creating a magnificent eight-course Spanish-inspired dinner.
Using signature ingredients – many shipped in especially for the dinner – and techniques created by Spain’s culinary masters, both chefs will cook four courses each, pairing every dish with a perfectly matched wine.
For your chance to join guest of honor Chef Albert Adrià at UCCA Restaurant this Friday October 30 from 6.30pm, answer this simple question:
What is the name of the “world’s best” Spanish restaurant where Chef Albert Adrià made his name?
Email your entries to tomomalley@truerun.com by 12pm Friday 30 October. The randomly selected winner will be contacted personally and announced on the blog.
To reserve seats for this one-of-a-kind event (hurry, space is ultra-limited), contact Valerie Taochy or Brian McKenna at adriabeijing@room-bmk.com.
