Martha Stewart is hosting a special one-night-only dinner in Queens this week
It's Martha Stewart's world—we're just lucky to be living in it.
Just weeks after unveiling her new cooking competition show Yes, Chef!, which she co-hosts on NBC alongside culinary powerhouse José Andrés, Stewart has announced she's heading to Ridgewood, Queens, to host a one-night-only dinner party that we, naturally, have to attend.
This Thursday, May 1, the 88-year-old icon will join forces with Yara Herrera of the acclaimed Mexican American restaurant Hellbender for a collaborative menu spotlighting ingredients harvested straight from Stewart's own garden in Bedford, New York.
Per Eater, the dinner will feature standout dishes like fried oysters with jalapeño mignonette and a whole roasted chicken with vegetables and three-cheese macaroni.
'Working alongside Martha, whose passion for culinary excellence has long been a source of inspiration for me, has been truly fulfilling,' said Herrera in an official statement. 'Martha's attention to detail imprinted on me from a young age, and it shows up in both the décor and the menu at Hellbender.'
The event is part of a new Resy dinner series pairing rising-star chefs with the icons who inspire them. In New York, Questlove is also teaming up with NY Kimchi and Golden Hof chef Sam Yoo for a similar affair on May 7.
