SUMMARY:Vegetarian Outdoor Grilling Class with Chef Robert Foster & Complimentary Lunch!
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, September 3\, 2023\, at 11:30 AM amidst the serene backdrop of the Elmhurst Community Lifestyle Center to elevate your culinary skills while nourishing your body at a one-of-a-kind Vegetarian Outdoor Grilling Class led by Chef Robert E. Foster! \nChef Foster’s culinary philosophy revolves around fresh vegetables\, seasonal produce\, and natural herbs. He believes that true wellness begins with the food we put on our plates. In this enlightening session\, Chef Foster will reveal how grilling can not only enhance flavors but also retain the nutritional value of ingredients\, making your dishes not just delicious but healthful as well. \nIndulge in the results of Chef Foster’s expertise with a COMPLIMENTARY LUNCH featuring the very dishes demonstrated during the class! While the name of the event is Vegetarian\, both the demo and lunch will be actually 100% plant-based (vegan). \nTo maintain an interactive and engaging atmosphere\, as well as to plan the lunch\, we’ve limited attendance to just 60 individuals. The RSVP on the event page is REQUIRED to attend. Also\, if something changes\, please change your RSVP to No so other people could take your spot. The attendance will be taken at the event and your Meetup profile will be marked accordingly if you RSVP but did not show. \nLet’s learn new veg recipes\, taste some food\, and make new like-minded friends! \nPlease use the “Comments” area on the bottom of the event page to offer/ask for rides and to post any questions or comments.
