LOS GATOS, CA (Crimson Restaurant PR) - Chefs Bite Back hit a true high note with one of the outstanding auction items for the June 4th event founded by Diane Rose, Chef and owner of Crimson Restaurant. "The Guitar was what I really wanted," said high bidder, Blair Susan Bittner. "I was so excited to get the Rolling Stone Guitar and to be a part of this event to stamp out hunger." Famous local Chefs and Wineries served over 100 guests who came to help in the fight to feed the hungry in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. "All the food and wine was donated," said Diane Rose. "The weather was beautiful and thanks to the donation from our emcee News Reporter of NBC 11, Susan Siravo, the tour of NBC 11 with lunch from Chef Gary Messick of Tapestry and wine from Burrell School was also a big success."

The Patio of Crimson was lively from 2pm until 6pm with signature dishes served by "celebrity Chefs" of Silicon Valley which included Julio Garcia of Picasso's and James Cargill of Rio Adobe in Cupertino. Not surprisingly, there was a constant crowd around the Manrea's station to taste the restaurant's famed dishes. It was a rare opportunity for most to sample the fare of Deanie Fox's award winning pastries. Even Chef Martha Duke of Siena Bistro left her station long enough to bid on and win local winemaker, Marilyn Dorsa's one of a kind Murano glass bracelet which was a hot item on the Silent Auction.

Wines from the local area were served at stations with actual Winemakers there to discuss the wines. Jeff Alexander of Alexander Cellars was on hand to discuss his award winning Zinfandel as well as his new product, Sarticious Gin under the SARTICIOUS SPIRITS label. Diana Jensen of Testaroosa Vineyards brought her award winning wines and said, "We are excited to donate 2003 Garys' Vineyard Syrah for the Silent Auction and this is our third year to participate in this first class event."

Steve and Leanne Troy, locals of Los Gatos, were watching the Silent Auction area to "protect" their bids. They have attended the last three years, "but we never get tired of it and love the exceptional wines." It was Rita Boren's second year. Boren, a local realtor, bid on the hand made necklace from Blue Moon Antiques and stayed close to watch as the Silent Auction results came in so that she wouldn't lose the wine tours she wanted. The surprise of the day, was the Bentley from Silicon Valley Auto Group. The high bidder, Steve Mangold was thrilled to have such a weekend ride, saying, "I am really glad to have the Classic Car washes. I can keep the Bentley clean and shining and maybe talk them into letting me also try an Astin Martin DB9."

The wineries donating tours and tastings, as well as "sold out" bottles of wine included Alexander Cellars, Byington Vineyard & Winery, Clos La Chance Winery, Cooper-Garrod Estate Vineyards, Silver Mountain Vineyard, Delmuth Vineyards, Ridge Vineyards, Los Gatos Brewery, Sarah's Vineyards, Steven Kent, Thomas Fogarty, and Zayante Vineyard. It was truly a luxurious day with the San Jose Jazz Society providing the music.

The Vice Mayor of Los Gatos, Joe Pirzynski, presented Diane Rose with a Commendation for her outstanding service to the Los Gatos community and thanked the sponsors, Adrian Liu and Friends of Chefs Bite Back and all the chefs and wineries who participated this year. Vice Mayor Pirzynski said, "This event is a signature event in Los Gatos, and we are very thankful for the support of all the local residents and many vendors who make this event such a success year after year, especially Chef and owner of Crimson Restaurant, Diane Rose for hosting it."
