There were lots of new faces asQuaint Restaurant at 46-10Skillman Avenue in Sunnysidewelcomed over 50 networkingguests on February 11 to comepromote themselves and their busi-nesses or organizations, a surpris-ing crowd in the mid-winterweather. The free business cardexchange was held by Friends ofBusiness in Sunnyside, withLowery Liquors generously pro-viding the wine. Quaint ownerTim Chen served five kinds ofdelicious hors d’oeuvres, the mostpopular, a smoky pear chutney onfresh, delicate corn chips. Of thosecrossing the threshold, thirty-ninewere new to the restaurant.

Invited expressly to get theword out about their businesses,attendees complied, including lo-cal hot web designer Josh Springerof Northside Web Services, painterBetty Ann Hogan, and SajjadKhalfan of Awards, Signs andEtching, photographer Rich Kleinof Sunnyside, Kathleen Hogartyof Servpro, and Thomas Dimisa ofIntercontinental Capital Group,Woodside on The Move’s Chris-tian Amez and a representativefrom Sunnyside Community Ser-vices. The Turkish Cultural Center

of Queens had two representativesexplaining their yearly FriendshipDinner and trip to Turkey. TDBank’s Michael Fonte greeted oldfriends and toured the restaurant.

Business booster Luke Adamssaid proudly, “Four past Chamberpresidents are here,” meaning him-self, Tony Lana, who is the volun-teer engine behind the pride ofSunnyside, the Sunnyside DrumCorps, Attorney Ira Greenberg, andMetLife’s financial whiz RebeccaBarker. Becky was also a previouspresident of Sunnyside Artists.Current president Manny Gomezand Luke Adams greeted guests atthe door, with Manny speakingSpanish with a few professionals.“We are just trying to bring peopletogether,” said Luke. “Why roam?Shop at home.”

Ellen Mandelbaum, interna-tionally known stained glass artist,sold a $500 piece on the spot toanother guest.

The exterior of Quaint is un-marked, except for a small gold“Q,” and a few said they did notknow there was a restaurant there,despite its Zagat recognition andpopularity. “I will come back, “said a mortgage broker, “Goodmenu. Interesting wine list.”
