Not long ago the Palm Beach Wine and Food Festival was just a one-night affair taking over Palm Beach's very exclusive Worth Avenue. That is, of course, until our Tastemaker number 10, David Sabin brought it to another level. He's brought the festival from a one night event into a five day celebration filled with celebrity chefs ranging from James Beard winners, like Chris Hastings, Marc Vetri, and Jacques Torres to Restaurant Impossible's Robert Irvine, Chopped judge Marc Murphy, and Top Chefs Stephanie Izard and Kevin Sbraga. He also orchestrated the prestigious Le Cirque Tribute Dinner, a commendation of the renowned restauranteur Sirio Maccioni.
When's he's not preparing, organizing, or overseeing the festival, Sabin is serving as president of the very busy Brickhouse Public Relations -- the company is the PR powerhouse for Palm Beach county representing high-end clients ranging from Clay Conley's Buccan and Imoto to Master Sommelier Virginia Philip. When it comes to bringing prestigious chefs and culinary talent together, this guy has figured it out.
