Last night we welcomed our friend Danny Meyer to AOC for a dinner celebrating his new book, What Could Possibly Go Right? — and it was everything we hoped it would be. The room was warm and lively, the conversation between Danny and journalist Jeff Gordinier was inspiring, Caroline’s w**e pairings were perfect, and Suzanne’s food was simply gorgeous.

Thank you, Danny, for sharing your time and your wisdom with us. And thank you to everyone who joined us—it was a wonderful night.
