Cooking Demonstrations at Trade Shows: Atlantic City Food and Wine Show

Ever since we released the Capital Cooking Cookbook in May, I haven't had much of a break.  When I'm not filming on the weekends, I've been cooking at trade shows on the East Coast.  The demonstrations are lots of fun, but the preparation takes almost more time than filming a show.

July was a busy month!  We cooked at the Great Grapes Annapolis Show and the Food Network Atlantic City Food and Wine Show. 

The part I love the most is seeing all of my chef and vendor friends at the events. 

At the AC Show, we worked with Alfa to make some delicious phyllo dough recipes. 

The audience learned how to make Spanakopita, Scallop Ceviche and Tzatziki. 

 We met some wine vendors...
