Celebrating "Grilling" at Barneys
Get a head start on summer entertaining with ideas and inspirations from my latest book, “Martha Stewart’s Grilling: 125+ Recipes for Gatherings Large and Small” - it's my 94th book, and it's at bookstores right now!
This week, to promote my latest publication, Barneys New York hosted a very special book signing, cocktail party, and dinner. The event also celebrated the launch of my new “designer burger,” available at all Freds locations - the iconic restaurant led by executive chef, Mark Strausman. More than 130 friends, colleagues, clients, and customers were in attendance. I had such a wonderful time signing books and talking with the guests. We served wine from Martha Stewart Wine Co., and a themed cocktail inspired by the book. It was a very successful and enjoyable gathering.
Here are some photos.
