Stop by the CUESA Classroom for a cooking demo featuring the seasonal bounty of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market. This demo will highlight an artisan producer who sells in our market.

She works closely with Executive Chef Scott Miller and the Pasta Shop kitchen team to present innovative products and menus that reflect a respect for tradition and the pizzazz lent by the talents of the kitchen crew. Sandy develops recipes for the wholesale fresh-pasta division and is responsible for the quality control of that department. She also creates the weekly prepared food menus focusing on different cultures, countries, or holiday themes. Since settling in the Bay Area in the mid-eighties and at Market Hall Foods since 1994, Sandy has been involved in the creation and retailing of prepared foods.
