COEX 2008

CEO Search Partners’ 6th annual, CEO Private Dinner & Reception, was held on February 28^th,2008 at the beautiful Royal Palms Resort and Spa, following COEX 2008 in Phoenix, Arizona. Named one of “America’s Top Restaurants” by Zagat in 2006, the old-world charm of this luxurious mansion reflects the fact that it was formerly the private estate of the King of Spain.

Dinner featured world-class food and wine pairings by our private host for the evening, James Beard Award nominee and of Iron Chef fame, Executive Chef Lee Hillson. Hillson greeted our guests and presented each with an autographed cookbook. On the scenic patio, guests were treated to hand-rolled cigars by a classic Cuban-style cigar roller.
