Earlier this month at our second-annual Gallery Beach House, we hosted an exclusive, first-ever, Hamptons dinner experience with the iconic New York City restaurant, Torrisi Bar & Restaurant, from Major Food Group. The intimate dinner was held to celebrate the partnership between Delta Air Lines and Wheels Up. Wheels Up is a leader in private aviation and the first premium travel company to offer a seamless and accessible aviation experience through global access to private and premium commercial air travel. Below, more on why we’re so excited about this unique partnership and an inside peek at the exclusive dinner.

Guests Enjoyed Torrisi in the Hamptons for the First Time, Ever
To celebrate the launch of this partnership, NBA player Kevin Love—an avid Delta and Wheels Up flier—hosted “Perfectly Paired,” a three-course luxury culinary experience. Torrisi chefs traveled Out East to prepare their bestsellers for celebrity guests, including Bethenny Frankel and Sasha and Oli Benz. While the entire menu was a hit, guests couldn’t stop raving about the tortellini pomodoro. Keeping up with the “perfect pairs” theme, a sommelier provided wine pairings for each course that captivated the senses. And don’t even get us started on the desserts (almond cheesecake and Sicilian date cake).
At the dinner, Love said of the partnership, “The care that they take and taking care of their clients, they make it really special and easy to get to that destination. It makes us more likely to travel and get out there, especially with our growing family. That extra care is not overlooked.”
