Last Saturday my family went to the
HAVELOCK MUSSEL FESTIVAL....
We had an excellent time and the weather was AWESOME!
My son Lance got chosen from the audience to help
CHRIS FORTUNE with a cooking demonstration.
Chris Fortune won 'Hells Kitchen' on television in 2003.
He is now the Executive Chef at two restaurants in Blenheim.
Lance loves cooking so he was a good choice.
This is a photo of Chris Fortune from his website.

Chris is confident speaker and presenter and is the current Chairperson of Farmers' Markets New Zealand and the Marlborough Farmers' Market.
He has run extensive workshops and training programs for market organisers, stalholders as well as cooking classes - public speaking - demonstrations - product launches through out NZ.
One of the hardest positions that I have held over the years is that of full time father and husband to my wife Tina and two children, Kacey Lewis Fortune and Holly Nancy Fortune.
Chris is the Executive Chef at the Blenheim Scenic Circle Country Hotel and
the Marlborough Convention Centre
This is Lance (in the red apron).
He really enjoyed this experience.
Chris Fortune also does cooking demonstrations in schools.
He likes to make use of local produce, often from the garden in the school.
This is a photo of Chris Fortune at Fairhall School, they were making
Potato Gnocchi!
I wonder if Chris would do a cooking demonstration at Birchwood School?
We would have to sort out our EDIBLE GARDEN first - any volunteers?
