Cooking with Vinny Marino of The Brickhouse Cafe
Jump start your "back to school" and attend an educational and informative cooking show! At the Mother Brook Arts and Community Center.
The Chefs’ Table Series road trip to Dedham will be an exciting one to attend! Four chefs – four different cuisines – and four entertaining personalities will capture all food-lovers and home cooks alike!
The Mother Brook Arts and Community Center, located at 123 High Street in Dedham, MA 02026 will host the 4-week culinary series during the month of September. This first-ever Dedham Culinary Series, highlighting independent-owned restaurants, kicks off on Monday September 8th with chef/owner Vinny Marino of the ever-popular Italian restaurant Brickhouse Cafe. He will be making his secret family dish: Shrimp Siciliano featuring shrimp sautéed with mushrooms, broccoli, roasted red peppers in a bianco sauce served over linguini. Yum!
Pastry chef/owner Elias Saade of the European-style bakery La Luce Pastry Shop that recently opened in Dedham Square will donate dessert for each show.
