Looks like Sean Currid is the king of all things cheese related as he won 1st place at our Mac & Cheese Throw Down back in December 2010! Congrats Sean! We love you!
Special thanks to our judges: Lara Mulchay, Andi Barness & Sandy Wasserman.
Stay tuned for a special announcement of our next “Throw Down” event later this Spring!
Not surprised at all… my absolute fav grilled cheese (both of ’em actually) come from Zuzu.
Glad you came!!
It was perfect Susie. Thanks for creating this event with the appropriate number of people (including me 🙂 ) to the space so we could mingle easily, not have to stand in long lines, meet and greet the chefs, meet new people, etc. I so appreciate those details…beautiful afternoon on a beautiful AZ day. I loved every minute! 🙂
Thanks for coming Kathy and for your kind words!!
