Who's Hungry for Dinner (Lab)?

From Dinner Lab's official site: "Dinner Lab is a social dining experiment that unites undiscovered chefs with adventurous diners who are looking for something different from the conventional restaurant experience. Our events bring together a group of interesting strangers around a common table to share cuisine crafted by up-and-coming chefs from all over the country."

It's all that and more. Let me start from the beginning...Here at Be Electric, we prepared for the arrival of the Dinner Lab. A bit of a frenzy is going on between some renovations to the studio and cleaning everything up before Dinner Lab shows up with its crew. Sweeping the floors, painting the cyc, and hanging up artwork. Then Dinner Lab comes in and it's time to arrange tables, chairs, and begin the food prep. It really is a big operation. This goes on for eight days... not that we're complaining! (Thanks again Dinner Lab, for choosing our space for your event!)

After all the preparations, guests start flowing in. At first there is just a few people trickling in, but closer to dinner, there is a line out the door. No doubt the smell of BBQ cooking next to the door has something to do with it. As the guests mingle, they enjoy a cocktail hour before things really get going. On one of the nights, CNBC decided to drop by and do a story on the event adding a whole new level to the excitement.

Everyone is then seated and Dinner Lab describes its mission and introduces the chef of that evening. The food is then brought out course by course, everyone smiling at the culinary journey they are about to go on. Ducking the CNBC video crew, the vibrant aromas, this really was an event to see.
