MANGIA! THE CHEF’S COUNTER FOR 6

VALUE: $1,250

Rick Gencarelli is the nicest (and coolest) chef in Portland! Owner and chef of Lardo and Grassa, he graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in New York, spent four years as sous chef at Todd English’s Olives, and then moved to San Francisco where he worked at both Rubicon and One Market restaurants. He crossed the continent once again to open Miramar Restaurant and Olives Restaurant in New York City. Later, Rick became the Chef at the Inn at Shelburne Farms, located on the non-profit environmental education center and working farm in Shelburne, Vermont. In 2009, Rick and his family moved to Portland where he opened Lardo as a food cart in September 2010. He now has five thriving brick-and-mortar Grassa restaurants and four Lardo locations including one in Las Vegas.

You and your guests will be up close and personal with Rick and experience the artisan comfort food of Grassa. You’ll enjoy the meticulously prepared bowls of fresh hand-crafted pasta, paired with traditional and seasonal salads, and wine all curated and served by chef Rick Gencarelli.

This package includes:

• Wine and a multi-course dinner for six (6) prepared by chef and owner Rick Gencarelli

• Date to be mutually agreed upon
