The 26th Annual French-American Wine and Food Festival given by the French American Chamber of Commerce proved a luxe spectacular!  The Soiree, held at the Hilton on Post Oak, attracted over 1,200 guests.  While sampling a wide spectrum of fare from local gourmet restaurants, including Masraff’s, Noé, Carmelo’s and Shimako Sushi Bar, guests’ glasses were filled with a fine selection of French and American wines: vivid Beaujolais, elegant Bordeaux, and resplendent Cabernet Sauvignons.

Guests played their hand at luck while raffling for 2 pairs of 1st class domestic tickets on Continental Airlines* and a luxurious Roche Bobois Curl Armchair!  The silent auction was a large success with its lavish hotel packages, luxury items and goods from local upscale boutiques.  Spirits were high as guests danced to sounds and stylings of the Fried Ice Cream Band.
