I recall the feeling like yesterday, now that I run my own restaurant, and your encouragement and knowledge that I still take with me today. You are my mentor for life and thank you for always having faith in me to be my best and teaching me the art of cooking mastery.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe had Chef Dario Tomaselli and Anita Heidema do an employee cooking afternoon. It was great to have an online demo dinner.<\/p>\n Some watched and others cooked together as a company. We had shared laughs while cooking together virtually as a team with our families. The recipes were given to us beforehand and a video, so it was easy for everyone to get the ingredients to cook with and have their dinner ready. We had the wine and juice pairing as well so we could enjoy it while we cooked.”<\/p>\n \u201cThank you Dario and Anita for making it easy, entertaining, and delicious for our team to bond and spend time together. We have been mostly working from home and missing each other during these times. \u201c<\/em><\/p>\n\n …with a new way of coming together around a joyful table?
