Chef's Inspiration Tasting Dinner

Enjoy a culinary adventure with your partner during this 2-hour Tasting Dinner at The Learning Kitchen at Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm. Chef Mark will share his culinary inspirations with you through a 6-course tasting menu, some of it cooked as a demonstration for you to enjoy while you eat.
Relax in an intimate setting of up to three couples, Chef Mark, and his helpers. 

• You will enjoy your meal sitting in barstools at the kitchen bar while Chef Mark cooks in front of you and describes his creations as he serves you. Each course will range from one large bite to a small plate. 
• Chef Mark draws inspiration from a variety of cultures and cuisines. He will include sweet and savory courses. You can expect all food groups, but let us know about any food allergies and cultural diet restrictions in advance and we will do our best to accommodate it.
• We will offer water and other palate-cleansing, non-alcoholic drinks with dinner. 

Chef Mark has 30+ years cooking experience, 10+ years farming experience, and 5+ years experience teaching culinary arts. He is the lead farmer, chef, teacher, and chocolate artist at Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm. He is an instructor of culinary arts at Frederick Community College teaching classes such as Advanced Bread Baking, Advanced Artistry, Garde Mange, and Culinary Medicine.
