Meeting at the market gives guests the opportunity to experience the finest and freshest produce and products from the best local purveyors, right from their hands. The Chef will lead guests on a culinary journey to seek out the perfect ingredients for the lunch they’ll soon prepare. After exploring the market, guests will head to the kitchen to transform their selected ingredients into a delicious three-course lunch that they will prepare and enjoy together.
Everyone will receive a Silverado Cooking School logo shopping bag, apron & a set of the recipes to take home!
