1st "Pop Up Dinner" at Nieuport 17

I finally got back in the kitchen for the Black Sheep Cooking Club's first guest chef dinner, a Wild Game dinner that was held Thursday, September 15th, 2011.  It was great to see the many faces I hadn't seen in a while and I thoroughly enjoyed the menu I got to create with chef Marco and his crew at Nieuport 17 (in Tustin.) I especially loved the room and the long table Nieuport 17 provided.

Thank you all, both to those who attended, and also to those who took the time to write to say they couldn't attend because of prior commitments. Both your participation and enthusiasm help to make more of these a reality. Already in the works is a "Duck" dinner probably sometime in November.
