At Marcel's, April marks the beginning of gift giving season with wedding season upon us and new exciting events in our kitchen, including a visit from guest chef Paul Kahan for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
There are a number of sales and promotions that we are sure you will want to take advantage of. Not to mention new products arriving every week that we are certain you will love. And because we're all about the cheese and charcuterie, we're putting the contents of our refrigerator case on sale (minus the wine) to help with all the parties and celebrations to come.
We have exciting new classes this month that are great excuses to gather up your friends and enjoy a night in our kitchen for a fabulous time of revelry and fun!
Stop in all month long. We love to see you and help with your springtime celebrations!

APRIL EVENTS + HAPPENINGS
|
While James Beard Award winning Chef Paul Kahan may not be a household name for you, his acclaimed restaurants are sure to be. Blackbird, Avec, Nico Osteria, Publican, Big Star, Dove's Luncheonette and The Violet Hour are some of Chicago's most celebrated places to dine and sip. And while many of the most renowned chefs in the country are publishing their first cookbooks before the first reviews are even in, Chef Paul Kahan has kept his focus on his now nine restaurants rather than his personal brand.
After 20 years, Cheers to The Publican is Paul Kahan's toast to the food he loves to make and share, the characters who produce the ingredients that inspire him, and the other cooks he honors. Marcel's is thrilled to welcome Paul back to our kitchen for a demonstration of dishes from Cheers to The Publican followed by a book signing. Join us for this very special event with one of the blazing stars of the Chicago culinary scene. Books must be purchased at either Marcel's or The Bookstore of Glen Ellyn. Registration is required for this event. Visit us online or call (630) 790-8500 to reserve your spot.
