Chef Richard Pratt has cooked at the James Beard House, for presidential inaugurations, and in the private kitchens of Robert Duvall and both President Bushes. But one of the most striking spaces he fills with his aromas can be booked by any member of the public: The Space Dallas, an elegant ballroom exclusively catered by Pratt and his team. Many evenings, wedding and gala guests dine and dance beneath yards of white bunting and modern chandeliers. On other nights, Pratt invents his own fun. Iron Chef–inspired cooking events are designed to build stronger bonds between couples, corporate teams, and overworked culinary robots.
