CAMILLE LOCCISANO'S ITALIAN SUNDAY FEAST

In my last post, I hinted at something big coming down the pike for Yellow Hook Grille. I've been inundated with questions on what the big secret was and after shoring up the final details, I can finally announce the news.

We are excited and honored to be hosting a very special event.  The event, "CAMILLE LOCCISANO'S ITALIAN SUNDAY FEAST", is a special dinner/fundraiser benefiting "Frankie's Mission", an organization that supports families of children with cancer.

Cookbook/author Camille Loccisano will be our guest chef as she shares anecdotes and prepares a menu of favorite recipes from her recently released cookbook, "Foodships: Living Life One Recipe at a Time".

In addition, Yellow Hook Grille is proud to fill the air with live music by the talented Sal Casta, a long-time Brooklyn favorite!

The cost for the event is $40.00 per guest and it includes a sit down three course gourmet dinner offering a choice of appetizers, entrees and dessert.  On the menu:

Choice of Appetizer
*Prosciutto Baked Mushroom Caps in Cremini Marsala Moat
*Basil and Coconut Shrimp with Balsamic Apricot Sauce
*Roasted Garlic Potato Croquettes served with Spicey Scallion Cream Sauce
*Tricolor Crostini:
Tomato and Fresh Smoked Mozzarella
Honey Ricotta with Roasted Pine Nuts
Broccoli Rabe and Pancetta

*Gnocchi with Gorgonzola Sauce
*Camille’s Signature Chicken Francese served with an Arugula Salad splashed with Champagne Dressing

Dessert

As you can see, this is a tantalizing menu and worth coming by for.  We are currently accepting reservations for this event and please note- RESERVATIONS ARE A MUST.  Checking off "yes" on the Facebook invite is not enough; You must call in to confirm your reservations and time slot at Yellow Hook Grille (718)-238-1089.  Seating times for the event run from 3pm -9pm, so book early to get your preferred seating time.

For those who know Camille and her story, this is a cause that is near and dear to her heart, ever since losing her own son to cancer.  She is a tireless supporter of "Frankie's Mission", and has hosted various fundraisers in support of this wonderful organization.  And we at Yellow Hook Grille are proud and honored to host this event for such a great cause.  To learn more about "Frankie's Mission", check out their web page.
