As our special guest, Chef Morgan Robinson will present cooking inspired by fire – the Mediterranean roots of rotisserie, grilling and other open hearth techniques.
He uses his elaborate grill as a portable kitchen, enabling him to cook fresh, local artisan ingredients on-site over an open fire, and serve the finished dishes immediately, just as it’s done in a high-end restaurant.
A classically trained chef, Robinson pursued an additional degree at the elite New England Culinary Institute in Montpelier, Vt.
He has worked at restaurants like the Ritz-Carlton in Aspen, but a strong interest in wine led him back to California and the Napa Valley.
He subsequently worked as a chef for wineries, creating distinctive menus to complement their wines. He also worked at Bistro Don Giovanni. Robinson’s years as a winery chef afforded him opportunity to develop wine-pairing expertise with foods, and a natural step was to get in the wine business.
