Travel across the flavors of America—no plane ticket required. Chef Stacy invites you on a delicious culinary exploration of three iconic regions: the rugged Rocky Mountains, the fertile Great Plains, and the vibrant Southwest—created in celebration of America’s Semiquincentennial. Watch as each landscape comes to life through a thoughtfully crafted menu featuring a Warm Mushroom & Herb Skillet with Goat Cheese, a Cast Iron Chicken with Sweet Corn & Bacon, and a beautifully spiced New Mexican Natilla (Cinnamon Custard). Along the way, you’ll learn professional techniques, time-saving tips, and the secrets to building bold, balanced flavors using approachable, everyday ingredients. More than just a cooking demonstration, this experience connects food to place—highlighting how geography, culture, and tradition shape the way we cook and eat. Come for the inspiration, celebrate the spirit of America, and leave with the confidence to bring these regional flavors into your own kitchen. This free, walk-up program does not require registration. It is included with your Lakeside Chautauqua Gate Pass.
