Re: I hate Donuts at the office

Ummm...I work for one of the most amazing group of restaurants - the food is unreal - I have been here 10 months and have gained 15 pounds!

For me, it's easy to avoid real junk food - like Dunkin Donuts, because it's mass produced crap. But when someone from this company puts a lovingly made french/italian/indian dish in front of me, I can't resist - it's too gourmet to be turned down!!

Came into a birthday party at work yesterday to a chocolate Tart from our new restaurant in the MoMA made by a world renown french pastry chef.

I mean....come on!

Pickles - where do you work? City Bakery is up the block from my job which is why i am asking.

On the free food note - they gave us pizza last week, sundaes yesterday and we had cake, cookies and key limes bars yesterday for weddings/birthday

I work for an event/lifetstyle marketing company and we do a ton of food and wine events.. and our boss/Pres here is a big foodie and friends with all the chefs/ restaurateurs, etc.

I just put a concept together for a private dinner at Modern, followed by a private tour of the new MoMa.

Re: I hate Donuts at the office

ha not yet.. but the client liked it. so, we will be booking eventually.

we do a lot of stuff with Danny though-- I am more on the mtkg/promo side- and that stuff is more events-- I just get pulled in cause there is no one else to do it.

What do you do there? We should exchange virtual business cards..
