Savor Tonight's Women + Wine, Bistro Ten Zero One, W.P.B., Fla.,

West Palm Beach, Fla.—Last month, Savor Tonight held their sixth Women + Wine event. Owner and organizer of the event Katy Lynch said the group is the first of its kind in Palm Beach County. Different restaurants host the dining group, open only to women, each time.

Bistro Ten Zero One, a seasonal farm-to-table location, was the venue for September’s dinner. Just over a dozen enthusiastic foodie women with an appetite to play attended. The only men were the chefs and some servers.

Executive Chef Chris DeGweck and Sous Chef Steve Torbon swapped off service of each course. While one did the cooking demo the other prepared the plates in the back kitchen. The banter between chefs and audience was fast and flirtatious.

The four course menu included: Heirloom Tomato Salad with Local Burrata, Maple Bacon Brussels Sprouts, Coconut Shrimp Ceviche and Seared Scallop with Tomato Fennel Salad.

During the coconut shrimp ceviche course DeGweck said, “This is a dish that you can impress your friends with.”

A woman from the audience replied, “Only you can impress our friends.” To which many ladies laughed in agreement.

DeGweck came out after the scallop course and said, ”This is an intimate group so we are going to serve you a dessert, on me. Crème Brule.” The ladies cheered and clapped.

It was exciting, educational and affordable; I only paid $42 including tax and tip. According to Lynch the price varies by location.
