Chinese Food Week 2011: Matt Biancaniello’s The Sweet Bitter End of Beijing

Matt Biancaniello , known as the master of extra creative seasonal cocktails at Library Bar in the Roosevelt Hotel, has whipped up a Chinese-inspired libation for Eater’s Chinese Food Week. Fun. Here we have The Sweet Bitter End of Beijing , a muddle of Asian pear, dill, lemon, agave, and unfiltered sake. Matt shakes then double strains his concoction into a Champagne glass and drops in a dill spring for garnish. The lovely libation will set you back $15 and is available through the end of November. In other OMG Truffles! news, Matt is about to roll out that White Truffle Eggnog he debuted last year.

We’re unencumbered by network relationships and we have a strong team of proven sellers in place. We’ve also got six straight quarters of profitability behind us. But we have lofty aspirations for the organization and that leaves us at an inflection point. What we need now is someone who has the vision and desire to take what’s in place, uncover what’s missing, and build a powerful, lasting digital sales operation. Day to day, this person will manage the sales team, sell to national brands across all of our titles—Curbed.com, Eater.com & Racked.com—and craft sales strategy.

Experience with any of the above is a plus but not required. What is required is attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and a willingness to learn. If the fit is right, there’s a fast path up the ladder in Curbed’s sales department. Interested parties should email jobs@curbed.com . In addition to competitive pay, we offer health care, a matched 401(k), and a good time. About Curbed: Curbed is the NYC-based publisher of websites that obsessively chronicle the subjects people wake up thinking about in the country’s most vibrant cities—design & real estate (Curbed), restaurants & nightlife (Eater), and fashion & shopping (Racked). With national editions of all three titles and regional sites in 15 cities (and counting), we’ve built an attractive national audience without sacrificing our local influence. The company is profitable and growing aggressively.
