Richmond American cooks up event

Richmond American Homes will be holding cooking demonstrations at 10:30 a.m. and noon today for its Flavors of Summer event, held at the builder's Home Gallery.

Michael Jordan, executive chef and co-owner of Rosemary's Restaurant, will prepare recipes, and prize giveaways will take place after each demonstration.

"This event is the perfect way to kick off the season. Not only will you have a chance to sample some amazing culinary creations, you can pick up expert tips and recipes for all your upcoming gatherings," new home manager Susan Lee said. "Imagine showing up to your next picnic or barbecue with fresh summer recipes borrowed from a gourmet restaurant. Chef Jordan is a local favorite, and it's easy to see why. He takes delicious ingredients and prepares them in a way that is simple yet inspired. This is his second culinary demonstration at the Home Gallery, and the last one was a huge success. Judging by the number of people who have already sent in their RSVP, we're expecting an even bigger turnout this time."

Rosemary's Restaurant, located at 8125 W. Sahara Ave., has been open since 1999.

Take the first right into the parking lot, then take an immediate left and follow the parking lot to the Home Gallery. The address is 7770 South Dean Martin Drive, Suite 10.
