| MAKING IT DIVALICIOUS |
| Jackie reinvented the dinner
show. |
"I decided if people wanted a 'dinner show',
I would give them one. And the critical difference between
my show, and the dinner shows and dinner theater I'd
been to in the past was the food. It was not going to
be the churned-out, mediocre slop masquerading as food
that you get more often than not at this type of show.
It was going to be well thought out, lovingly prepared,
delicious food. I'd make sure of it by overseeing it
from conception to consumption myself. By designing
the menu, developing the recipes, training the sous
chefs, and tasting everything along the way, I could
make sure the final product was fantastic. I'd call
it 'eatertainment' and I would make food a integral
part of the show's entertainment as well."

| Jackie's debut 'eatertainment'
show, "The Fried Chicken Theory According to Jackie Gordon"
featured an evening of sweet soul music and sultry soul
food. Guests thoroughly indulged in a three-course feast
for the senses. It started with a choice of gumbos backed
by a heavenly gospel choir, followed by a fried chicken
with all the fixin's buffet, underscored by a swinging
jazz sextet, and a finale of platters of southern sweets
set to Jackie's heart-ripping classic soul music with
her eight-piece band. Between the food and the music,
Jackie told amusing stories that actually entertained
and even educated the audience about the history of food
and music. |
"It was a huge success. Tabasco and Melbourne-based
Eat More Poultry sponsored it. The crowds loved it!
They ate well, were thoroughly entertained and even
learned a thing or two."

| "The Fried Chicken Theory
According To Jackie Gordon" has been produced several
times for the public and as a corporate event. Jackie
has returned to New York and she launched her new business,
divalicious inc., in February 2003. She is currently developing
new eatertainment shows; "The Ultimate Chocolate
Lover's Smorgasbord", "Fromage En Cabaret"
and "Matzo Ball Memories." |
