Relish Magazine cooking show coming to Post Falls

The pages of Relish magazine will come alive when the Press presents the Relish Magazine Cooking Show, Sept. 15 at 7 p.m. at the Greyhound Park and Event Center.

Relish chef Jon Ashton will conduct a lively, two-hour show featuring authentic recipes, useful cooking tips and new ideas for the kitchen.

Ashton, a prominent advocate for children's nutrition, believes "food is a social exchange that connects people." Food-loving crowds across the country have connected with his unique blend of culinary style, on-stage flair and audience interaction.

"We're expecting a sold-out show," said Press spokeswoman, Jennifer Alexander.

"We encourage readers to purchase advance tickets now."

Designed to entertain, educate and empower home-kitchen chefs, the show's menu includes scrumptious fare ranging from breakfast tarts to vegetable lettuce wraps, salmon burgers, and delectable peanut butter mousse.

The event includes a pre-show expo showcasing products and services presented by local vendors. Each show attendee will receive a gift bag that includes coupons, special discount offers and the Relish Magazine Cooking Show keepsake cookbook.

Relish magazine appears in the Press on the first Wednesday of each month and has a nationwide circulation of 15.5 million copies.

Each issue celebrates America's love of food with colorful features on cooking, dining and entertaining. Whether it's a formal dinner or a tailgating party, good-for-you foods or a sweet indulgence, a hidden roadside restaurant or a family picnic, Relish magazine is always lively, festive and fun.

The Press invites you to be part of this special event.

Tickets are $13 and can be purchased in advance online at www.nicookingshow.com.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Boys and Girls Club.
