Zusammenfassung:At a recent formal dinner in Schaumburg, IL, 99 men and women sat at a huge u-shaped table to enjoy an evening of fine food and wine and each other's company. The focus was strictly on the excellence of the food, drink and service, and that was just the point. It was the annual dinner of the Chicago chapter of Les Amis D'Escoffier. Les Amis got its start in New York in 1936 and has spawned numerous chapters in the US and as far away as Beijing. In Chicago, John Kaufmann, a retired chef and former country club owner, presides over the Les Amis chapter and is devoted to preserving its traditions.
