@wethebench_ hosted us for our 21st dinner. Guests were greeted with a glass of @massicanwinery wine, a @_nicholascordeiro @polaroid, and our newest initiative, the 3rd Space council. A select group of 10 past guests to join our hospitality team for the evening.

@danchograms @bennygoldberg @andiepopova @jasminespuur @sofiadangelo27 @noah.bergs @guccciclone @wilkes.studio @joxrenee @julip.mp3

@india.doris discussed being Michelin’s young chef of the year, opening @marketterestaurant, coming up under the late Chef James Kent and how she developed as a calm kitchen leader. India plated the following:

Salt cod fritters, Scotch Bonnet Aioli

Tuna Crudo, Aji Amarillo, Avocado

Rigatoni, chanterelle, Comte, Creme fraiche

Peri Peri Chicken, Gem salad

Blood Orange cheese cake

@joshuatbassett tallked about leaving home at 16, sneaking onto a red carpet to get his start, landing a lead in a major show, winning an Emmy, and then pivoting his success into community service and raising money for the homeless through an initiative called Sammy Sundays.

@mays.jones staged 8 works around the room and discussed how his pieces lack reference to others, nor do they attempt to evoke any emotion. He starts some pieces with a specific idea and reacts to the canvas as it progresses. A work is only done once nothing is left to react to or approach. On each piece, his single focus is what’s in front of him.

We wrapped with @maevetouhey playing 2 songs alongside her guitarist @wllrosen. Before going to @playbeatbox for afters, an intimate kareoke lounge in the West Village. We heavily endorse their space & their wonderful team. Dm us for a connect.
