Fridays at Fairview

Starting Friday, September 21, S.B. food guru Laurence Hauben (editor of Food & Home magazine) dishes up a fun and educational weekly event that is sure to excite even the most amateur culinary enthusiast. During this week’s Fridays at Fairview, Hauben will lead a tour through the Fairview Gardens Farm Stand, where participants will peruse and collect ingredients before heading into the kitchen for a hands-on lesson in cooking with organic, locally grown foods. Following the prep, Presidio Winery founder Doug Braun will hold a tasting of some of his biodynamic, sustainable wines. Planned menu items include warm crostini of organic, local goat cheese with fresh roasted figs, local albacore in escabeche, and an apple tarte tatin. The event starts at 3 p.m. and admission is $75. Call 259-7229 or visit marketforays.com for reservations and information on upcoming menus and tastings.
