Cocktails & Conversation with Salman Rushdie

Photobucket

What a shock for me to find a random email about controversial author Salman Rushdie making a rare appearance at Vermilion this week.

But what's even more random is that "Top Chef" co-host and model Padma Lakshmi—who just happens to be Rushdie's ex-wife—told me that Vermilion was her favorite Indian restaurant in the country.

Anyway, Rushdie's only going to be there 8:30-9:30pm Thursday for an event they're calling Cocktails & Conversation. No tickets, cash bar. Get there early and check out the food that Lakshmi lusted after.

  1. It wasn't that random of an appearance. Salman Rushdie is an investor at Vermilion's offshoot in NYC-- called At Vermilion--which opened last week.
