You may have enjoyed local chef, author, and cooking instructor, Carmela Tursi Hobbins' recent presentation and book-signing event at the Italian Cultural Center. Carmela developed a love of cooking as a child in Des Moines, Iowa, as she watched her Italian grandmother prepare the specialties her family enjoyed. Her love became a passion, and Carmela grew as a chef, hostess, teacher, caterer, and author. Now...Carmela is back!! She is ready to share her expertise in the kitchen with us!
Join Carmela, on Tuesday, February 21, 2012, from 6 until 8:30 p.m., as she guides us in preparing Grazietta's five course Farm House Dinner!!

The evening will include demonstration and participation as the following menu is prepared:
Bruschetta topped with spinach, mushrooms, onion, and parmesan cheese
Pasta Con Erbe
Sage Stuffed Chicken Breast
