Event: Chef's Plate 4
Chef’s Plate, the ultimate traveling cooking competition, is heading south of the border to the Valle de Guadalupe in Baja, Mexico. Often called the “Napa of Mexico”, those in the know have been privy to its unique character that gives it a flavor of its own. On Saturday July 25th, 2015 (5-9pm) three of Baja’s top chefs will be cooking whole lambs fresh from the farms of El Mogor served family style to 140 guests.
Tickets purchased! Looking forward to this event.
