Our Virtual Cooking Demonstrations, via Zoom, are a fun opportunity to watch your chef in action. During class, your chef will teach you how to  prepare the dishes while you observe and take notes. Our Zoom moderator will make sure your questions submitted through the chat option are answered during or after class. The recipe packet will be provided upon registration. Please note that some recipe steps may be prepared ahead due to the length of the class.

We recommend our Bozen Pinot Grigio as a pairing with this dish. Order it for curbside pickup from our Lincoln Square location so you can have it to enjoy when you make this dish at home.

Thanks to our friends at Chef's Warehouse for sponsoring the ingredients for this class. You can now shop like a chef and have the highest quality protein and specialty items delivered right to your door.
