Millwright's Chef Tyler Anderson's "The Art of Food Presentation" subject of Simsbury Library Event

What better way to spend a rainy summer day than in the audience of the Simsbury Public Library’s August 11th event with Millwright’s Restaurant Owner/Chef Tyler Anderson and “The Art of Food Presentation”.

Over 100 friends of the Simsbury Library attended today’s event filling the room to capacity. Tyler spoke for over an hour on a chef’s consideration on a culinary creation touching on color, deconstruction, texture, hot vs cold, ease of eating and labor intensity.

With lots of fun anecdotes and stories of menu successes and failures, Tyler has a relaxed and easy way of connecting with the audience.

The presentation was followed with many questions including meat preparation, spices, best way to cook corn, utensils, pots and pan choices as well as some good suggestions from the audience to share with other amateur cooks.

As audience members were arriving both Chef Anderson and Sous Chef Nils Talbot began prepping tastes for everyone to enjoy at the end of the event.

The hors d’oeuvre included salmon rillette with crème fraiche, Millwright’s “everything bagel spice” and tomatoes with olive oil, opal basil and benne seed.
