With a little more than just two days left in 2010, we’re seriously beginning to doubt that Speck, the long (like, really long) awaited debut restaurant from Shola Olunloyo, will open this year. When first announced last spring, it was said to be opening on or around Memorial Day. If you can’t wait another second to experience Olunloyo’s storied dishes, you just might be in luck. The enigmatic chef is hosting a Tastes of Winter dinner tomorrow for a select few at an undisclosed location. The $120 dinner will feature six courses that each draw inspiration from seasonal ingredients. [Studiokitchen]
