Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa Introduces Cooking Classes
Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa, an all-villa oceanfront located midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles off Highway 1, has launched a cooking class series, a lineup of special culinary evenings that showcase the rich bounty of the central California Coast. Guests join Lido Restaurant’s Executive Chef Evan Treadwell for an inspiring cooking demonstration followed by a multicourse dinner paired with notable local wines.
The monthly Thursday classes began in May with ‘Cooking From the Farmers Market,’ a joint culinary demonstration by Chef Evan and Bill Spencer, an organic producer from Windrose Farms.
Over his 20 years as an acclaimed chef, Evan has honed a passion for and expertise in California Coastal cuisine inspired by the vast selection of high quality, locally produced foods available.
In the first class, Chef Evan highlighted produce, grown within a few miles of Dolphin Bay at Windrose Farms, in a carefully crafted menu paired with Central Coast wines. After the demonstration, guests enjoyed the feast. The class was $75 per person, plus tax and gratuity.
The schedule of cooking classes this also includes:
* All About Abalone, June 25, $80 per person
