Simple Abundance: The First Spring Vegetable: Peas!

$55 – Demonstration and Tasting

Valued as a fixture in the Atlanta restaurant scene, Simple Abundance presents Executive Chef Micah Willix of the newly opened Latitude Food and Drink.  Join Chef Willix as he shares his some of his favorite recipes highlighting peas.  The class menu includes Sweet Pea Salad with pea shoots, soft boiled egg and local bacon; Clams with peas, fava beans and cava; and Roast Spring Lamb with smashed peas, mint and lemon aioli.  The evening includes wine tastings sponsored by Sherlock’s Wine Merchant and a chance to win tasty door prizes provided by Bella Cucina Artful Foods and Cabot Cheese.

The Atlanta Community Food Bank’s Simple Abundance Cooking Class series provides the community the unique opportunity to interact with Atlanta’s top chefs, learn the secrets of exquisite dishes, have fun, and help feed Atlanta’s hungry.  One hundred percent of class tuition benefits Atlanta’s Table, a project of the Food Bank that collects food from our local hospitality industry and delivers it to more than 40 nonprofit partner agencies that provide meals for those in need.  For details or to register, visit www.ACFB.org, or call 404-892-FEED, ext. 1444.
