Champagne Sabering Takes Over
Published in Widowism by chefswidowAfter the SOS sabering competition experience, I thought the boys were done. How could I have possible known that the ladies would end up conquering all!
Monday night brought out all the foodies for the Terra Madre fundraiser at Lolita. Cleveland Chefs, Yummy Food, Great Bartenders, and of course, a sabering competition experience. Looks like we have a new party past time.

While all of you were at Lolita sabering yourselves silly, I was devouring a big juicy burger with those awesome fries and some of the new beans and tomatoes at Bar Cento.
Just look what those rockin’ female chefs from the SOS benefit have wrought!
I assume Lizzie Symon is not the Iron Chef’s sister… sigh! That puts a wrinkle in my dreamworld
Sorry Jill
Lizzie is DEFINITELY not Mike sister. And she rocks.
Knife play is always good fun.
