Socialites of Bville!

Derek and I had a lunch date today at the Price Tower. I will start a new job next week as Director of Quality for the Phillips 66 Lubricants business. As a “thank you” for being his supervisor for the past 3 years, one of my current group employees gave me two tickets to the “soft opening” for the new chef at the Copper Restaurant and Bar at the Price Tower. (The enployee’s wife works at the Price Tower). A contest was hosted to hire a chef-in-residence who will reside in the Price Tower and bring his or her vision to the restaurant for a year. You can read a nice article about the contest here. Wright Chef Competition Article 

Today Derek and I enjoyed cuisine from the first (Frank Lloyd) Wright chef in residence, Jimmy Sanabria-Cardec. Here was the menu. We got to try whatever we wanted for free all in return for feedback on taste and presentation!

 Derek had the Cuban sandwich with side of fried plantains. I had cream of cauliflower soup and a new take on the Waldorf salad. All tasted excellent in the really fun Frank Lloyd Wright Price Tower setting! Between the wine tasting event last weekend and this lunch, we are really getting out and about in little Bville! 

We also peeked into the Price Tower gallery to see the new Oragami in the Garden exhibit by artist Kevin Box. Totally unique! Here is a picture of his metal oragami buffalo. We want to go back with the kids as the kids enjoy oragami!!!
