Chef Robert Curry prepares for South Beach Wine & Food Festival
Chef Gary Lampner and his team at Eggwhites Catering are thrilled to welcome Chefs Robert Curry and Paul Lemieux to our commissary in North Miami. Hailing from the renowned Napa Valley inn and Michelin-starred restaurant, Auberge du Soleil, Chefs Curry and Lemieux will be sharing our kitchen to prepare for their South Beach Food & Wine Festival dinner on Saturday evening. They will be showcasing the sophisticated cuisine indicative of Auberge Resort’s world-class dining offerings at their properties around the world. As part of the Festival’s new Taste Fort Lauderdale series, guests will have a chance to preview and experience the best of what’s to come at the Auberge Beach Residences & Spa Fort Lauderdale scheduled to open in 2017.
Chef Curry’s menu reflects his extensive experience in the traditions of both Napa Valley and France, which continue to inspire the cuisine at Auberge du Soleil. His signature dishes include White Corn Soup with Rock Shrimp and Chervil Oil; Seared Ono with Wakame, Tempura Maitake, Glazed Pork Belly and Dashi; Bacon Wrapped Veal with Foie Gras Ravioli, Sugar Snap Peas and Wild Mushrooms; and Liberty Farm Duck with Figs, Hearts of Palm, Fennel, Arugula and Port Beet Sauce.
Chef Lemieux is the creative force behind the delectable desserts and confections at Auberge du Soleil. He created the Auberge Torte au Chocolat, the inn’s signature dessert. Lemieux handcrafts each torte with 11 layers of crisp hazelnut dacquoise, exquisitely smooth chocolate crémeux, fresh pureed organic hazelnuts and intensely rich dark chocolate ganache and ships them daily to fans nationwide.
