Padma Lakshmi and Campari Celebrate the Year of the Negroni
Last night Padma Lakshmi threw a bash with Campari to celebrate the kick-off of the Year of the Negroni at The Box. On hand were stars of mixology including Tony Abou-Ganim, Jim Meehan, Jacques Bezuidenhout, Francesco Lafranconi and Williamsburg upstarts Chad Solomon and Christy Pope of Cuff and Buttons Cocktail Catering. All presented interpretations of the classic Negronis inspired by Lakshmi's cookbook, "Tangy, Tart, Hot and Sweet."
