SALT CREEK WINES AND DINES FOR A CAUSE
Food, wine, martinis and music are sometimes more than you need to host a successful party. Once a year for the last 12 years, Salt Creek Grille in Rumson, NJ has played host to several different charity events. This years beneficiary was the Kortney Rose Foundation, founded by Kristen Gillette who’s daughter died of a rare brain tumor at age 9 in 2006.
Having lost a sister to pediatric leukemia, many years ago, covering this particular fund raiser was both bittersweet and a wake-up call. Still, after all these years, more money needs to be put toward research. Specifically for pediatric causes.
Soap box put aside, Flavor Chronicles/ Chef’s in Motion loves a good party, especially where good food is served, so I bring you highlights of this years event.
SEATTLE DEVOURED: A FEW DELICIOUS PARTING SHOTS

DEVOURING SEATTLE: SNOQUALMIE FALLS
Scenery around Seattle and it’s surrounding area is stunning. When you come from a flat-lander area, it can actually be awesome. Take those remarkably tall evergreens, add a thundering waterfall to the scene, throw in an impressive lodge and shake till you just don’t know where to look first.
It is a scene that screams, this is what Washington is all about. Big, strong, and broad shouldered, this state is not for wimps. But, this is a blog about food, so why am I writing about panoramic views?
EXOTIC JEWEL BOX: RUNA RESTAURANT
A town that prides itself on great eateries in a small area, has a new restaurant added to it’s roster. It takes a confident chef to jump into the maelstrom and expect to succeed. Red Bank, NJ can boast that it has a Peruvian restaurant now. Those little bites of delicious surprises I tasted, have me itching to go back for a full meal.
