Silver Anniversary Gala Cocktails, Dinner and Tribute Program
The Santa Ynez Valley Marriott will be celebrating its 25th Anniversary of operating in Buellton on October 14th. And, the hotel has decided to mark the event with a celebration of two other of Buellton’s great community assets, namely People Helping People and Jonata School.
The hotel locate at 555 McMurray Road has become a hub of the Buellton community where people come to celebrate important family and public events. So, the senior staff decided that conducting a public party was a great way to honor the people of Buellton and the Santa Ynez Valley who have supported the hotel. Hotel managers also thought that the party gave them an opportunity to pay tribute to two of valley’s best organizations serving the same community and its children.
On October 14th, from 4-7 PM, the Marriott will host a cocktail party with net proceeds benefitting Jonata School programs. A wide array of free appetizers will be provided by the hotel’s chefs with cocktails costing $5.00 each. The net income from each drink, approximately $4.00, will be donated to the school. The party will conclude with the presentation and serving of a special silver anniversary cake.
Immediately following cocktails, the party will adjourn to the hotel ballroom where General Manager Mike Hendrick will be the host of a 4-course gourmet dinner with individual courses prepared by four different chefs. Hendrick said that the hotel is honored that three celebrity chefs have agreed to join the Hotel’s Executive Chef of 24 years, Ofelio Flores, in preparing the dinner.
Clark Staub, from Full of Life Flat Bread in Los Alamos will be on hand with his portable pizza oven to provide appetizers. Chef Flores will be offering a fall soup and Leonardo Curti of Grappolo in Santa Ynez will be serving his renowned tiramisu for dessert.
Currently, it is expected that the main course will be prepared by a special guest, world class chef, from Los Angeles whose restaurant has received 5 stars from the “Los Angeles Times” and who is a James beard award winner. Event organizers anticipate completing arrangements to include this chef in the next two weeks.
