The New York Culinary Experience, October 3-4, 2009 Join us for the second annual New York Culinary Experience, the only hands-on event of its kind, offering food lovers of all skill levels the chance to cook hands-on and up-close with some of the world's most renowned chefs.
Sign up for two days of intimate hands-on classes with acclaimed chefs, restaurateurs, and industry insiders. You’ll learn professional techniques and creative approaches to recipes, prepare—then enjoy—dishes under the direction of these industry giants, attend question-and-answer sessions, wine tastings, and, at the close of each day, a private reception for NYCE students and chefs.
NYCE attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in a silent auction to benefit the Future Chefs Scholarship, a program offering scholarships to aspiring chefs so that they may attend The FCI.
To maintain small, intimate class sizes, ticket availability is limited. BUY TICKETS NOW!
