Here are our picks for fun Father's Day gift ideas! |
|
|
The Adult PB & J
Give Dad an adult version of the classic PB & J with Eliot's Adult Nut Butters and Quince & Apple preserves. This time-honored favorite is sure to be a winner.
|
Big Bad Breakfast
For the dad who loves to wake up on a lazy weekend morning and cook the meanest, baddest breakfast around. Or course, no breakfast would be complete without Nueske's bacon and McCluskey's maple syrup.
|
Bourbon Curious
Bourbon anyone? For the bourbon loving Dad, the Bourbon Curious recipe book, Woodford Reserve bourbon soaked cherries, spiced cherry bitters and the Simon Pearce double old-fashioned hand blown glass. Perfection!

Cocktail: Bitter Giuseppe

Chef Dave Sahs
To Chef Dave, the beauty of cooking at home is that you can let the market drive your menu. And this class is designed to do just that; help you build an arsenal of technique, flavor and amass an education of fresh products available during the summer season at the market.
On the menu:
Cocktail, Crostini, Salad, Fresh Pasta, Sgroppino - all derived from the freshest ingredients obtainable at the market that day
