Luscious Seafood Celebration, 7:00 P.M.
Paras Shah
Kat & Theo, NYC
With a résumé that includes stints at El Bulli, Per Se, and Momofuku Noodle Bar, it’s no wonder that Paras Shah has won the hearts of New York diners at his knockout Flatiron eatery Kat & Theo. Join us at the Beard House as Shah showcases his culinary chops with a decadent seafood menu to welcome the spring. Sample the Mediterranean-inflected new American fare that had Gael Greene raving when Shah serves up Razor Clams with Pine Nuts, Raisins, and Chiles; Lobster Rolls with Pimentón, Aïoli, and Fennel; and Turbot with Uni Sauce Meunière. Even the dessert is geared for our warmer weather: Pineapple, Coconut, and Crème Fraîche Cake with Brûléed Pineapple and Coconut Sorbet, a sign surer than daylight’s savings that spring is on its way.
