Intermezzo Bar + Café

is GROWING! New expanded space...new expanded menu...and new chef.

With Intermezzo’s newly appointed Chef Nik Ramirez now in command of the kitchen, and a recently revamped interior, Intermezzo Bar + Cafe is bigger and better than ever.

Born on the Hawaiian island of Maui, Ramirez was raised on, and gained a love for, local produce. By cooking and creating menus with what the local environment provided, he became accustomed to exercising his creativity on a daily basis. His goals were to use only indigenous plants, fruits and vegetables, in order to help sustain local farmers and markets, and led to his becoming a supporter of organic and sustainable farming. - Noozhawk

Local foodies take note of two upcoming "adventures"

Outstanding in the Field is coming again to our neck of the California "woods"...sometime in May or June. They will have their official 2009 schedule tour dates available on March 20.....and if you have not yet picked up a copy of their cookbook...hurry on down to Chaucer's and pick one up.

And....if that weren't enough delicious excitement....SBCC Continuing Education has a class coming up in their next session (Registration starts next week) entitled "Walk with the Farmer and the Cook" starting April 16th for 4 weeks on Thursday mornings.

This class is all about appreciating our local seasonal food and the people who grow it. Each week we will visit a farm and walk for about 30 to 60 minutes with a farmer to learn about fruits and vegetables: how they are grown and harvested, how to cook and enjoy them as well as learn their nutritional value from a cook who is a registered dietitian. Participants will receive weekly recipes and experience tasting an assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables. First class will meet at the Center for Urban Agriculture at Fairview Gardens (598 N Fairview, Goleta). Limit 50.
