GRAND GOURMET®

Grand Gourmet – The Flavor of Midtown® will take place Thursday, May 10, 2012. Check back here soon for more information about this year’s event, including some delicious snapshots of our guests from last year savoring the flavor of springtime in the Grand Central neighborhood.

Grand Gourmet – The Flavor of Midtown® is GCP’s annual neighborhood restaurant showcase held in Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall to benefit and recognize the work of the Grand Central Neighborhood Social Services Corporation, the largest not-for-profit homeless services provider in New York City. First conceived and produced by GCP in 2000, Grand Gourmet annually draws nearly 1,000 guests, including business and community leaders, neighborhood stakeholders, elected officials, local residents and culinary enthusiasts, for an evening celebrating the very best our neighborhood has to offer.

On Thursday, May 12, 2011 Grand Gourmet guests once again sampled delicious dishes and beverages from more than 30 of Midtown Manhattan’s (and the world’s) finest restaurants in the unforgettable setting of majestic Vanderbilt Hall. Last year’s event was our most exciting to date and GCP salutes the generous participation of our sponsors, restaurants and event partners that together ensured an unforgettable evening.
