Cat Cora Food Demonstration and Booksigning, co-sponsored by Chow Bella

Start: 06/23/2010 7:00 pm

Cat Cora made television history when she became the first female Iron Chef on the Food Network, where she used her instincts to transform random ingredients into exciting creations on a moment’s notice. In her new book, Cat Cora's Classic with a Twist, she turns her eye to some of our most popular dishes to make them faster, fresher, and lighter. These are the swift meals Cat relies on when she comes home from work to cook for her own family: Greek-Style Nachos, Grilled Chili-Lime Flank Steak Soft Tacos, Crispy Baked Fish Stix with Mustard Dipping Sauce, Quick Chicken Curry with Peas, Sour-Cherry-Filled Chocolate Cupcakes, and more.

Join Cat for a food demonstration and booksigning co-sponsored by Phoenix New Times' food blog, Chow Bella, which will be on hand with prizes and giveaways; details will be announced at www.phxfood.com as the event gets closer.

In 2006, Cat Cora received the Teacher of the Year Award from Bon Appétit and was named executive chef of the magazine. She is president and founder of Chefs for Humanity, which raises funds for emergency and hunger-related causes. Visit Cat's website.

SEATING begins one hour before the event. Lettered tickets (free with book purchase) will be called alphabetically to fill seats and will also be used to form the booksigning line. Each ticket is good for two seats. Seating opens to the general public fifteen minutes before the event, so please arrive early, as space is limited.
