As ICE's creative director, Chef Michael Laiskonis spends as much time working in the kitchen behind the scenes as he does interacting with students. In this demo he will share recent discoveries made in chocolate, confections and plated desserts, in pursuit of both new ideas and a better understanding of classic preparations. A discussion of the inspiration behind the experiments will be accompanied by a demonstration of these dishes --- and, of course, a tasting of the final results. Free for current career students and alumni; general public, $40.
