Governors Island with Billion Oyster Project

Governors Island with Billion Oyster Project

$425.00

HOST: Billion Oyster Project

GUEST CHEF: Rafiq Salim | Rolo's

Dinner on this small island provides an opportunity to take in the sights. The skyscrapers of Manhattan. The Statue of Liberty. The bustling New York harbor. A seat at the table is a visual feast.

Governors Island is home to the Billion Oyster Project, an organization that engages local youth to restore New York Harbor’s lost oyster reefs. OITF is heralded for bringing lauded guest chefs to a variety of scenic locations. But beyond the immediate surroundings and the fabulous food, our ultimate goal is to tell the back story of the places where we set the table. The folks at Billion Oyster will tell us their tale and add to the meal.

Guest chef Rafiq Salim of Rolo's will set out from his Queens tavern with crew and knife bag to wrestle with live fire. If we’re lucky, they may even bring some treats from their other operation at Radio Bakery in Greenpoint.

Guests will be responsible for arranging ferry travel to and from the event.
