SEE EVENT DETAILS
Come meet and greet World Food Champion and TV Personality Laurie Figone who will be signing copies of her latest cook book, Cooking with Laurie Figone. This full-color cookbook, inspired by Laurie’s friends and family, has 30 easy, delicious, and healthy recipes ranging from appetizers and main dishes to sauces and desserts, many of which do not feature salt and are gluten free. The book also has a special augmented reality feature. By downloading the free app “Aurasma”, the user will be able to view videos that appear as though they are playing on the pages of the book by simply pointing their phone or tablet camera at the recipe photos. The videos are of Chef Figone explaining her recipes and giving helpful tips that are not mentioned in the book. Laurie will be doing demonstrations of the augmented reality feature of her cook book and giving out samples of her famous Meyer Lemon-Rosemary Bars.
