What's not to like this season? Picnic? A little appreciation to Moms? Come check us out!
We are pleased to announce a special event at The Joyful Gourmet! James Beard Award winner and Michelin Star Chef Gale Gand of Food Network Sweet Dreams fame will host a holiday appetizer and dessert demonstration. Get ready for New Years Eve whether you’re staying at home or joining others to bring in the new year (and put this one behind us!). We’ll make 2 appetizers that are crowd pleasers and 2 desserts perfect for sharing – Spinach and Pesto Pull Apart Girasole (Puff Pastry Sunflower), Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Ball in Everything Seeds, Lemon Curd Filled Daisies, and Chocolate Bouchon (Fudgey Chocolate Timbales). And a winter cocktail treat – a Spiced Cranberry Sparkler! Seating will be a combination of kitchen island seats and adjacent high top tables positioned close so that everyone can see, and that we can help everyone keep some spacing and stay healthy for the holidays.
Pastry Chef Gale Gand has two James Beard Awards, opened the Michelin two star restaurant Tru in Chicago, owned Vanilla Bean Bakery, hosts Food Network’s “Sweet Dreams”, and authored 8 books. She worked with Julia Child, makes Gale’s Root Beer, went to La Varenne in Paris, is a Pie Contest Judge, and has Kitchen Sisters Cooking School. More info: www.galegand.com
If you cannot make your reservation, we do encourage you to attempt to find someone that would enjoy attending. We can only issue a credit for you to attend a future event (6 month expiration). Within 72 hours we are not able to offer a credit as we’ve already incurred food and help costs.
