Stephanie Izard: Gather & Graze

Since becoming Top Chef’s first female winner, Stephanie Izard opened three iconic restaurants in Chicago, traveled around China, and became an Iron Chef. And now she’s here to share her next adventure: a cookbook with recipes that hit all of the right salty, savory, tangy, and sweet notes. Her craveable, knockout food pairings will surprise and delight any home cook: Banh Mi Burgers, Duck Breast with Brown Butter Kimichi, and Sticky Sweet Potato Cake with Blueberry-Tomatillo Jam. Join us for an evening devoted to spectacular eating and entertaining with one of the most celebrated chefs working today.
