The Chef Series at the Mattatuck Museum continues with Restaurateur Marty DiVito Jr. of Signatures Restaurant in Waterbury on Monday, June 20, 2011 from 6:00-9:00pm. In “Mixing it up with Marty” watch and learn how to make seasonal dishes as Marty creates his Signatures Salad, Seafood Risotto with Shrimp, Scallops and Mussels followed by Espresso Crème Brulée. Learn valuable cooking techniques and tips then enjoy the meal in the elegant museum setting.
Nothing equals the learning experience of a real cooking class. Participants will interact with the chef and ask questions to better understand the concepts and techniques. Participants will have a clear view of all the cooking action and learn how to transform fresh ingredients into a beautiful, delicious menu. The classes will be taught in the museum’s kitchen. The lesson ends as participants enjoy the meal they just learned to prepare.
The fee per session of the Chef Series at the Mattatuck Museum is $65 for museum members and $75 for non-members. The price includes the class, enjoyed over a glass of wine, and an elegantly set table to savor the meal they learned to create. Join the museum to immediately qualify for the member discount.
