Enjoy an evening with a 21st century balaboosta (Yiddish for "perfect housewife"). Einat Admony is chef/owner of Balaboosta & Taim Restaurants in New York, a cookbook author and was a competitor and winner on Chopped and Throwdown with Bobby Flay. This wife, mother and chef who runs three bustling New York City restaurants will introduce guests to the recipes that she cooks for the people she loves.

Her mixed Israeli heritage (Yemenite and Persian) blends with the fresh, sophisticated Mediterranean palate she honed while working in some of New York City's kitchens, resulting in a melting pot of dishes suitable for every occasion.

Menu includes: Chicken littles with garlic aioli; melon gazpacho; ceviche with salmon; crispy cauliflower; sinaya (Israeli shepherd's pie with eggplant, tomatoes, ground lamb and beef, topped by a layer of tahini); and malabi (creamy pudding) with orange brandy sauce.

Class fee includes one copy of Balaboosta: Bold Mediterranean Recipes to Feed the People You Love.
