Uncorked happens tonight just in time for the well-deserved pre-Friday drink. Thursday nights aren’t just for college kids anymore.

Each Thursday night Holiday Market serves up several of its favorite selections from the wine and beer categories in a unique atmosphere. They pair it all with a delicious food spread and create the most unique night in town. When entering Holiday Market’s doors, follow the signs to Mirepoix.

I will have more details to the planned bottleage and food fare as the info comes down the pipe from the organizers.

More than just fungi? Well, of course they are… Edible mushrooms are an excellent way to support the flavors in a dish. Harnessing their mysterious flavors can be easier if you find a chef willing to highlight the many different species which are available in local stores. Frustrated by picking up package after endless package of dried or fresh mushroom varieties only to get even more confused as to what tastes like what? Mirepoix’s class on Mushrooms will get you face-to-face with the chefs who will gladly direct your taste buds to the most fantastic and practical to use in your seasonal dishes. There is so much more to cooking with fungi beyond the common white buttons and you’re missing out if you miss this class. It just might be the most fun you’ve had eating on a Friday night!

Mirepoix’s top chefs are clearly prepping for the summer cooking season with the upcoming seafood course featuring the best seasonal seafood. Knowing full well that our options at the seafood counter can seem infinite and a perhaps a little bit overwhelming, the course will be geared towards helping you overcome some of the obstacles of planning a successful meal around a solid seafood choice as a main course. Covering everything from creative preparation to all the appropriate sides, this class is labeled ‘must-go’ this season.

Inexperienced Seafood eaters don’t be intimidated! This class is being offered as “hands-off” in a sit-back and relax environment. The pros will cook and fill your heads with little tricks to make your own experiences easier
