American Express, Resy, and Chef's Table kick off their expansive partnership this June with an intimate narrative-driven dinner series, followed by a culinary festival and an awards ceremony.
The partnership begins in June with On Set with Chef's Table presented by Resy, a three-part dinner series in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, each featuring a chef from that city. The dinners will start with a live "Chef's Table: Talks" podcast taping between the night's chef and "Chef's Table" creator, David Gelb, focused on personal stories, creative philosophies and the journey that shaped their culinary point of view. Guests will then sit down for a dinner inspired by the conversation. The dinner series features:
- New York City: June 2 – Chef/partner Nick Curtola of The Four Horsemen and i Cavallini
- Los Angeles: June 9 – Chefs/owners Hannah Ziskin and Aaron Lindell of Quarter Sheets
- San Francisco: June 10 – Chef/owner Brandon Jew of Mister Jiu's
This summer (Aug. 13-16), Chef's Table Festival presented by American Express and Resy will debut in Park City, Utah. Acclaimed chefs will take part in a weekend of curated events that bring festivalgoers into the world of "Chef's Table" with interactive culinary demos and programming.
In the fall, a new awards ceremony celebrating chef excellence and culinary legends – Chef's Table Honors presented by American Express and Resy – will take place at Wynn Las Vegas, an American Express Travel® Fine Hotels + Resorts® property. In addition, the partnership will continue with a multi-year activation featuring an impressive roster of chefs, including those in the On Set with Chef's Table dinner series.
"The best dining experiences are about connection: between diners and chefs as well as story and cuisine," said Pablo Rivero, CEO of Resy and SVP of American Express Global Dining. "Guests want to understand the story behind their meal and to feel connected to the people creating it. Our partnership with Chef's Table lets us bring that to life in a new way."
"Partnering with American Express brings our chefs' artistry to the forefront and launches a new chapter in the ‘Chef's Table' story," said Justin Connor, president of Chef's Table Projects. "It speaks to our shared commitment to elevating the future of dining and allows us to take a bold next step in translating the soul of our series into immersive, real-world experiences. We're excited to use Resy to connect restaurants and diners with renowned global culinary visionaries."
