Upcoming, Recent and Ongoing EventsUpcoming EventsJune 25th – Gnocchi with Chef Gino, Food Party – 6pm to 8pm Those of you who were lucky enough to see Chef Gino in action at the Earth Day South LA chef demo tent, know what a wonderful opportunity this particular food party is. Come out and support CSU and learn how to make fresh home made Gnocchi (Italian potato dumplings) from scratch with herbs from the CSU garden. Each person will have their own gnocchi making space and we will them cook them all collectively and enjoy with some wonderful parmesan and fresh salad from CSU’s gardens. From Chef Gino you will not only learn the art of Italian food, but also be infected with his great sense of humor and deep love for food. Spaces are limited, so book yours now now. IN 2008 CSU began hosting a (sometimes) monthly food party as a means of bringing together cool people and great food and also raising some needed resources for our work. Each food party has a different theme that is reflected in the food and music (and clothes for the willing). You don't have to stay the whole evening, in fact the evening is planned so folks on their way elsewhere can stop, eat, chat and move on. The number of attendees will be limited for each event and it will be strictly pay in advance. A detailed menu and address for the event will be sent to those that RSVP, but you can be sure to get home cooked gourmet food, featuring locally grown and beyond organic produce, at an incredible price of $20.00 (minimum donation), along with great company and the knowledge that your dollars are supporting a great cause. Spaces are limited, so RSVP soon to neelam@csuinc.org or call 323 299 7075. Remember, spaces are limited as we refuse to compromise the quality of our food. So, get your confirmation in early; for you to be confirmed, we must receive your payment in advance. You can pay online at csu shop or Send your donation ($20. minimum) payable to CSU to 1344 West Martin Luther King Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90037.
