About the Event
What makes ice cream so irresistible?
What's the difference between gelato and ice cream?
What flavors go best with each other? Creams or fruit flavors?
As part of the evening, Mauro will offer an ice cream tasting accompanied by an "affogato al caffe'."
Mauro Sessarego is Italian born and raised and is the third generation that is involved in the restaurant industry. A professor at the acclaimed Culinary Institute of America since 1997, Mauro has taught several classes.
