Absolutely, and the man is Chef Gino! This big lovable Italian from Parma, Italy knows his stuff. But more importantly, he has the charisma to convey the joy of cooking to kids with a passion that is totally contagious.
I first heard about Chef Gino in a brain storming meeting in Santa Monica with my friends from the Garden School Foundation. In talking about what food to offer for our Family Festival, a simultaneous cheer of: “Chef Gino” rang out across the beautiful wooden dining table that serves as the meeting area in Nancy’s, the founder of the GSF and garden designer extraordinaire, office. Not knowing anything about Chef Gino, but trusting the taste level of the GSF board and staff implicitly, I looked up Chef Gino on Vimeo, and bada-bing: I fell in love instantly!
Hurry and buy your ticket to the California Baby Family Festival (the goodie-bag itself is worth more than the price of admission), and be sure stop by Gino’s cooking station for a hands-on cooking lesson or just sit back and watch him go, go, go! Gino says, “I'm going to make Tortellini with the kids and families at the event....easy, fun and sophisticated.” Whole Foods (where Gino’s pizzas will be debuting soon) will be providing the organic ingredients. If you are looking for me at the event, chances are - you’ll find me loitering around Chef Gino’s station :)
