Put Flavor First with Cheryl Forberg on Aug. 8

Fresh Starts Chef Events invites you to meet Cheryl Forberg, RD, nutritionist for NBC's "The Biggest Loser," who will share flavorful recipes from her most recent cookbook along with her knowledge from 13 seasons of helping people remake their bodies, their diets and their lives.

Her delicious menu will be enhanced by wines from La Playa Vineyards in Chile, owned and distributed by Novato's Cab.Corp. They will offer La Playa Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and La Playa Estate “Un-Oaked” Chardonnay by the glass as well as complementary pairing for two courses.

Her menu:

  • Grilled Shrimp Cocktail with Fire Roasted Cocktail Sauce (La Playa Estate Sauvignon Blanc)
  • Spicy Beef Satay with Portobello and Asparagus (La Playa Block Reserve Claret)
  • Pumpkin Flan with Ginger Biscotti

One of the few professional chefs who also is a registered dietitian, Forberg was part of the team that opened Wolfgang Puck's Postrio restaurant in San Francisco as well as author of the James Beard award-winning "New Mayo Clinic Cookbook." We'll have her latest book available for purchase -- get a personal autograph!

Tickets include dinner and two tastings; wines by the glass will be available for purchase. Purchase tickets online or call 415-382-3363 x243 for details.
