Kalikow said, “I’m happy to be here representing my father Peter Kalikow, the Grand Central Partnership Chair. This event is special. It promotes the chefs and restaurants in the area and raises funds for homelessness services. President Fred Cerullo and his staff do an amazing job every year. No exaggeration--this was definitely the best (and most delicious) Grand Gourmet yet, and the tremendous turnout further highlights Midtown Manhattan’s resurgence.”
