Event
edible LA Mozza Scuola di Pizza Dinner
Buon Appetito!
Chefs Nancy Silverton and Matt Molina will cook in the fully equipped exhibition kitchen where we can watch the master chefs at work and learn the craft of pizza production first hand. The delicious Naples inspired dinner prepared right in front of us will be made using local sustainable ingredients because as the other Mozza owner Mario Batali told edible Los Angeles - 'it just tastes better!' Mozza received a green restaurant certification for all it's hard work to provide great food without damaging the environment.
Alla Salute!
Joe Bastianich is flying in from New York and will be pouring a selection of his Italian wine, Bastianich, and wine from Palmina, a Santa Barbara vineyard that uses Italian varietals. He will share with us his vast knowledge of the vino we are tasting.
With only three long tables of twelve its going to be more like dining family style at an Italian villa than at the Mozza restaurant. Nancy, Matt and Joe will be up close and personal to answer questions and entertain us with food, wine and good cheer as we raise some money for a great cause.
Buona Forchettas!
This Italian expression means good eaters are made not born. To this end the proceeds from the evening will be given to the 24th Street Elementary School Garden for an outdoor kitchen so that the children will be able to make their own pizzas just like Nancy and Matt! Nancy Silverton is a founder member of the Garden School Foundation (GSF) that runs the schoolyard garden and is excited to join edible Los Angeles to raise money to help them bring education to local school children through garden-based learning in outdoor living classrooms.
