Chefs, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: How Food Lovers, Free Spirits, Misfits, and Wanderers Created a New American Profession Please join us for an all-star panel of New York City culinary VIPs for a look at how the professional cooking profession, restaurants, and American cuisine evolved here in the 1970s and 1980s. What drove an unprecedented number of Americans to pursue a culinary career during those years; what challenges faced them; what were the different paths to education and success; and how did food and restaurants change as a result of their participation? Panelists for this fascinating conversation include chef and entrepreneur Diane Forley, chef and Director of Culinary Affairs at ICE David Waltuck, chef and journalist Mike Colameco, the cofounder of Blue Ribbon, Eric Bromberg, and the chef-owner of the legendary Quilted Giraffe, Barry Wine. Author Andrew Friedman, whose new book, "Chefs, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: How Food Lovers, Free Spirits, Misfits, and Wanderers Created a New American Profession," occasioned the talk, will also join the panel, and sign books during the reception that follows.

You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

Working in teams of two, each student will finish and take home two of the following cakes: vanilla mocha latte with mocha ganache and espresso buttercream; triple chocolate cake with dark chocolate cake, white chocolate ganache, chocolate frosting; chocolate chip cookie dough with edible cookie dough filling and vanilla buttercream; Ferrero Rocher cake with praline ganache and feuilletine crunch and chocolate ganache frosting.
The sauces you will learn to make in this class are not just for special-occasion dishes you'll prepare once a year. Relying on pantry ingredients and reflecting the contemporary cook's lifestyle, they are meant to easily take a grilled meat or poached fish from simple to superlative with a pan reduction, beurre blanc or a pesto. You will master these techniques by making sauteed steak with red wine reduction sauce; poached salmon with beurre blanc and pasta with pesto.
Spend this Valentine’s Day in the ICE version of a classic New York City steakhouse. You and your loved one will learn all the techniques and recipes you need to replicate your favorite steakhouse experience at home. You'll make and enjoy: classic shrimp cocktail; Caesar salad; grilled New York strip with beurre maitre d'hotel; creamed spinach; truffled mashed potatoes, and Champagne.
Expand your knowledge and techniques in preparing dishes using fresh pasta dough, homemade sauces, fresh herbs, and more. Over the course of the evening, you will learn to create intricate, trattoria-quality pastas, such as: Potato Gnocchi with Gorgonzola Sauce; Ricotta Cavatelli with Peas, Mint and Lemon; and Spaghetti Carbonara.
