Food is immediate in our culture. We simply go to the store and buy fresh produce. We've learned to be more conscious about seasonal, locally grown and organic foods, but one thing we give little thought to is the life span of ingredients -- specifically, the time it takes for food to grow, develop and mature. How long does it take to harvest a single carrot or to raise a pig?
Mindful Meal is a dining experience by Taste Workshop, where we examine and enjoy food through the lens of time. Experience a five-course, interactive dinner by guest chef Gavin Schmidt, highlighting ingredients at various stages of life, evolving from fast to slow, young to old, light to complex.
