An Evening with Chef Carlo Arriola of Audrey Claire

Chef Carlo Arriola of Audrey Claire made his debut in the COOK kitchen this weekend to provide us with some delicious Mediterranean fare. Check out his amazing menu!

We started off the night with fried halloumi served with fig jam and dates. This dish is a popular menu item at Audrey Claire and was certainly enjoyed by all of our guests! The halloumi was followed by a caesar salad with baby romaine, crispy lovash, and locatelli cheese on top.

As an intermezzo course, Carlo broke out the dry ice and handmade a pear sorbet right before our eyes!
