Piccolo Chef will be at the Westfield Fashion Square New Dining Terrace Launch event on May 19th and 20th at 1pm, 2pm and 3pm! Come see why Piccolo Chef was voted the “Best Kids’ Cooking Class” by Los Angeles Magazine! They will be on site preparing fun, healthy summer snacks and nibbles for kids of all ages. Bring your little ones and watch them create one-of-a-kind bites sure to make an appearance in your kitchens this summer!
The New Year started out with a bang for Piccolo Chef! Lots of exciting projects and a new location are in the works! (That reminds me – this week we need to pick our new kitchen for the classroom!) Yes, girls and boys, we are coming soon to the Hollywood/Studio City area with our own location for classes, birthday parties and much more! I can’t say what the ‘much more’ is right now – it’s a secret! But here’s a hint: it is a super-cool new way of learning to cook and, at the same time, honing your mad skillz as the next new Top Chef!
Come join us at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura for a special holiday celebration! There will be cartoons, food, arts & crafts, storytelling, and even a visit from Santa Claus himself!
Over the summer we posted an interview I did with three local moms who hail from Italy, but live here now. (Why they would ever Italy is another blog topic...) I thought the piece would provide a fresh take on a much-discussed subject: kids and food. Entitled “Italian Moms: Why Their Kids Don’t Get Fat”, these women really gave us some clear insight into relationship between Italians and food, plus a whole lot of great ideas for us to try at home!
