Food@Haas Chez Panisse Lunch and Farm Tour

Join us for a special Food@Haas event: an exclusive, fully private lunch and behind-the-scenes experience at Chez Panisse, one of the most iconic restaurants in the world and the birthplace of the modern farm-to-table movement.

We’ll start the day together at the Edible Schoolyard (started by Alice Waters) for a quick walk-through of the space and harvesting some of the fresh herbs/veggies before heading over as a group to Chez Panisse. From there, the entire restaurant is ours for the afternoon. This is one you won't want to miss!

Together, we will get:

• A private tour of the Chez Panisse dining room, café, and kitchen spaces

• A wood-oven cooking demo led by Chef Gary Podesto

• A seasonal, multi-course lunch prepared exclusively for our group (optional wine pairing pending)

• A casual, candid Q&A with Gary on sourcing, sustainability, hospitality, and the future of regenerative food culture

Menu:

• Pizzas from the Wood Oven
• Kabocha Squash & Shelling Bean Stew with Green Coriander Yogurt
• Warm Farro Salad with Gold Beets, Currants, & Turmeric  
• Spring Vegetables Roasted in the Wood Oven with Harissa
• Garden Lettuces with Radishes, Mint, & Preserved Lemon Vinaigrette 
• Almond Cake, Spring Berries, & Creme Fraiche
• Wine Pairing (optional)
