For this special outdoor dinner, guests will be seated in my outdoor kitchen and around the pool while I cook the meal over live fire. The evening is inspired by the work of legendary Argentine chef Francis Mallmann, who has become famous around the world for his dramatic open-fire cooking and his philosophy that fire, salt, and patience are all a great cook truly needs.

Inspired Chef Mallman, this dinner celebrates the bold flavors of fire cooking.

The evening’s menu will include empanadas cooked in a wood-fired oven, a bright quinoa salad, and a mixed grill of meats and locally made sausage cooked over open flame. We’ll finish the night with smoked apple crisp served warm with ice cream.

It will be a relaxed evening filled with firelight, great food, and the kind of communal table that reminds us why cooking outdoors is one of the oldest and most joyful ways to gather.
