Rhubarb Hospitality Collection (RHC), the premium international hospitality group, announces its partnership with Hamptons caterer, Cynthia Battaglia, to launch Events by RHC Out East.
As part of its expansion, RHC will establish a permanent base in the heart of The Hamptons with a dedicated kitchen and local team on Main Street in Bridgehampton, growing its partnership with Rethink Food to repurpose appropriate leftover food for meals that feed New Yorkers in need.
Collaborating with Ms. Battaglia, a premier Hamptons caterer for over 25 years, RHC will utilise her connections to local farmers, fishermen and growers in the area to create upscale events, from weddings and private parties, to intimate al fresco dinners.
Menus reflect the charm and laidback luxury associated with the region, whilst bespoke highlights include an elevated Seafood Bake featuring lobster, little necks, shrimp, PEI mussels and jumbo shrimp alongside small plates of King Salmon Poke and Heirloom Tomato Tartare.
P.B Jacobse, CEO, Rhubarb Hospitality Collection, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Cynthia Battaglia. We’ve had great success with events in some of Manhattan’s most iconic buildings including our restaurant Peak, 100 storeys up in Hudson’s Yard, and previously in The Hamptons. This collaboration is a natural extension and strengthens our presence in the region.”
Cynthia Battaglia, Owner, Distinctive Catering, said: “Rhubarb Hospitality Collection is renowned for creating some of the most unique and memorable events. The menu truly embodies the upscale yet laid-back atmosphere of The Hamptons, so I’m thrilled to help bring this to life, offering residents memorable and creative events using fresh, seasonal, and locally sourced food.”
