Have sex with me on a plate...
I mean, join me and lots of other lusty, food-loving New Yorkers at this Sunday's Sex on a Plate. Register at Eventbrite. It's at the gorgeous Roger Smith Hotel, where we held the Cupcakes Take the Cake 5-year anniversary and I may or may not have shot part of the Peep Show book trailer (among other things I may or may not have done there). Note: I am attending this free courtesy of the organizers.
The text below is from the official invite. (Blame Blogger for formatting errors.) Yolanda Shoshana is the one who read about flirting with foodies at Sex & Food Night (click to watch video) at In The Flesh last month.
Join us for a journey of the senses...
For singles & couples. Goodie bags included.

What does your inside voice say when you taste something sublime?
Mine says "Sex on a Plate."
It's
that moment when the food overcomes you, taking your senses to new
heights as you prepare for the next bite. When your mind is consumed by
flavors, textures and colors -- and the world disappears for a minute.
I've conspired with Chef Daniel Wolinsky at the Roger Smith Hotel to
design just that kind of moment for you. A whole series of them, in
fact. This Valentine's Day, I hope you'll join us for a very
special
evening, whether by yourself, as a couple, or
with friends.
How does this event work?
This very special cocktail and tasting party comprises passed
hors d'oeuvres and a 5-course tasting
of small plates that will push your palate to the limit with sultry
flavors, citrusy surprises, spicy crunch and heavenly honeyed nuances.
We'll spend the evening exploring the sensual pleasures of these
flavors along with wine and signature cocktails, each element designed
to envelop your senses. While much of the evening will bring you
mouth-to-mouth with the unexpected, here's some of what you can look
forward to:
6:30 - 7:00 PM Passed hors d'oeuvres and signature cocktails
7:00 - 10:00 PM Small plates and open bar
Throughout the evening, special guest Yolanda Shoshana, the Luscious
Lifestyle Diva, will be sharing some of her delicious expertise. I'll
also be available with some special guests to share more about the
connection between food and sensuality.
