Tonight, join iconic Atlanta Chef Ron Eyester, a local restaurateur and contestant on the current season of Top Chef Boston. This season of Top Chef may be set in Boston, but Ron grew up in New York and he’s here to share a menu that is inspired by that New York upbringing, and represents a night at Timone’s - his Morningside “pizza joint”. He’ll start with a cheese course: “Ah…The Power of Cheese,” which will consist of Timone’s Ricotta with Shaved Fennel, Orange Zest & Black Pepper Honey as well as Timone’s Mozzarella with White Anchovy Gremolata & Chile Oil. He’ll follow that with Marinated Cucumbers and Late Harvest Cherry Tomatoes, served with Fresh Basil, Feta & Not Paul Newman’s Italian Dressing; Rhode Island Style Calamari - what Ron refers to as “The Most Unhealthy Preparation of Squid Known To Man”; Timone’s Meatballs, made with Local Beef & Pork and served with Red Sauce & Romano Cheese; Baked Ziti (Red Sauce & Ricotta); and Zeppole (Fried Pizza Dough dusted with 10x Sugar). Evening includes wine tastings sponsored by National Distributors and a chance to win tasty door prizes provided by Bella Cucina Artful Foods and Cabot Cheese.
