About GREENHOUSE

In 2008 New York City nightlife literally went green, with GREENHOUSE, an eco-friendly nightlife destination that celebrates nature as the ultimate playground. The space is built from recycled/recyclable materials and Greenhouse is the first nightclub that went the extra mile to apply for a L.E.E.D certification — the standard that is awarded for developing environmentally friendly or “green” buildings. The launch event for the Greenhouse concept took place at Paris’ uber-chic venue Le Baron during Fashion Week in September 2007. Greenhouse also brought it’s eco-friendly idea to the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, which featured the official premiere party for U2’s highly regarded 3D film, as well as the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, at which Prince Albert II of Monaco hosted a star-studded event benefiting his charity foundation and the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival where Greenhouse hosted the likes of Benicio del Toro, Steven Soderbergh, Evangeline Lilly and the North American Premiere Party of “Valentino: The Last Great Emperor”. Greenhouse established a satellite location at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival which featured events such as the premiere party for “Brooklyn’s Finest” starring Richard Gere and Wesley Snipes and an IFC Breakfast with Steven Soderbergh. Most recently, Greenhouse returned to the Toronto International Film Festival in 2009 hosting the official after-party for “Get Low” starring Bill Murray, Robert Duvall and Lucas Black as well as an exclusive event for “Solitary Man” featuring Michael Douglas, Susan Sarandon and Danny Devito. http://www.greenhouseusa.com

Oliver Kita Chocolates Announces New Holiday Chocolate Tasting Party Kit

Oliver Kita Chocolates Announces New Holiday Chocolate Tasting Party Kit











Rhinebeck, NY (PRWEB) November 9, 2008

Oliver Kita (http://www.oliverkita.com/chocolate_tasting_kit.html)

has created a gourmet Chocolate Tasting Party Kit, beautifully boxed and wrapped for the holidays. “I want people to experience the fun of chocolate tasting,” said Oliver Kita, Chocolatier. The party kit, enough for four people, includes six signature boxes containing tasting samples that are all Valrhona single origin chocolates, extra samplings of single origin ganaches, and chocolate tasting score cards, all wrapped in a custom chemise tailored coral-colored gift box.

Said Kita, “The idea is to carefully sample and taste bits of chocolate, trying to determine the flavors. What do you taste first? What is the middle note? The lasting aftertaste? I provide a step-by-step guide.”

Friends and family are invited to compare comments with each other. There are no right or wrong answers. “This is perfect after dinner entertainment for the holidays,” added Kita.

Each of four boxes contains chocolate tasting squares from one of four different countries: Madagascar, Venezuela, Dominican Republic, and Ecuador. There are 12 squares of chocolate, four each of three different percentages. Two additional boxes contain single origin ganaches that are to be enjoyed as part of the experience, but are not part of the The Chocolate Tasting Party Kit.

All of the chocolates in the Tasting Kit are handmade. Kita is an artisan chocolatier. And the game is his creation. He also includes his personal comments on each of the chocolate tasting squares.

The OliverKita.com website http://www.oliverkita/thanksgiving.html) highlights other new chocolate creations, such as holiday chocolate wreaths, gourmet traveling hot chocolate, and seasonal bon bons. Kita also has Corporate Collection, Christmas Collection, plus organic (http://www.oliverkita.com/organic.html) for those who not only want the purest of chocolate and ingredients, but also chocolates that are the result of fair trade.

About Oliver Kita

Oliver Kita is an award-winning Chef and Caterer who turned his artistic culinary talents to creating hand-made chocolates. A Culinary Institute of America graduate, Chef Oliver Kita received diplomas from L’Ecole Lenotre in Paris, L’Ecole du Grand Chocolat Valrhona in France and Academy du Chocolat, Barry-Callebaut, Montreal. “Appreciating chocolate every day can change your perspective on living,” said Kita. “Take the time to evaluate and enjoy what you have, where you are now, and chocolate every day is a part of that experience.”
