Last night I had the honor of going to a local Macy’s Culinary Council Cooking Demo. I had no idea what to expect, but I was hoping to get a little inspiration in the kitchen. Inspiration, along with tips, tricks of the trade, and a fun atmosphere is what I gained by attending the cooking demo. Chef’s Nancy Silverton & Johnny Iuzzini came to the NOLA Event will energy, humor, and some amazing recipes that most anyone could make.

Make sure to visit the Macy’s Culinary Council website and see if any of the renowned chef’s are visiting your local Macy’s. It will be an evening to remember. If not, you can pick up the cookbooks of each chef at your local Macy’s OR/And purchased the Macy’s Culinary Council Holiday Cookbook which features recipes from all the chef’s favorite Holiday Recipes. Stay tuned next week for next week as I recreate some of the recipes I learned last night.
