About this Event
As the air turns crisp here in the Hudson Valley and Berkshires, it’s time to move our gatherings indoors and embrace the cozy, fireside flavors of the season. Join Leah Guadagnoli in our HGS Home Chef kitchen for a curated menu of sophisticated, cold-weather cocktails and artisanal retro-inspired small bites. Chef Leah designed this class to elevate your autumn hosting and inspire holiday entertaining to come. You’ll leave with her recipes in your back pocket. Next step?... put together your guest list and set the date of your own drinks party at home!

About Leah:
Leah Guadagnoli is an artist, chef, and homesteader living in Hillsdale, NY. She is the founder of Fancy Feast Supper Club, a creative dinner series that brings people together through homegrown globally inspired vegetarian meals she prepares from her garden with passion, love, and a genuine curiosity for the overlapping flavors and techniques our expansive universe has to offer. Through extensive research and an ethically conscious appreciation of other cultures through food, her goal is to celebrate our commonalities and unique differences to form connections and better understand the world we share. When she's not busy in the kitchen, you can find her working in the studio making abstract sculptural paintings she's been exhibiting internationally over the past decade or tending to her garden with the company of her beloved flock of chickens.
