Lilify hosted quite a memorable pop-up dinner party to benefit YAC on Sunday, August 27th. We were treated to an exquisite three course meal made by chefs Ron Mendoza of
Revival Ice Cream, Ben Spungin of
Post Ranch Inn, and Yulanda Santos of
Aubergine - all paired with wines by
Pierce Ranch Vineyards and
Bright Coffee. The feature of the evening was that each chef chose a piece of YACster art to inspire a 3-D dessert interpretation. The YACster artist and the chef unveiled their creations, which guests then ate and enjoyed with Bright Coffee and dessert wine.
The dinner, wine, coffee, cocktails, and desserts were all so delicious. Everyone agreed it was the best party ever. We cannot thank Lilify enough for hosting one class act of a benefit dinner for YAC. Applause and deep gratitude goes out to featured chefs extraordinaire Ben Spungin, Yulanda Santos, and Ron Mendoza, and to Pierce Ranch Vineyards, Bright Coffee, and to Hanni and Jesse of Lilify! Huge thanks also goes out to the generous and lovely guests in attendance. What a magical evening!
-Meg, Marcia, and the YACsters
