Chef Fred Feufeu of Bleu

Chef/Owner Frederic Feufeu is back by popular demand, once again sharing favorite recipes from his award-winning French bistro located in Mashpee Commons.  We don’t know his menu yet … Fred makes his choices based on the freshest and best ingredients available … but we know that his presentation will be extraordinary. We always learn a little bit about his native France and a whole lot about his food preparation. Being with Chef Feufeu, or dining at his restaurant Bleu, is almost like being in France – no passport needed!  $39 per person. Early registration is advised!

Jay Bartolomei of Landucci Italia

Jay Bartolomei is continuing his family’s restaurant tradition as the chef/owner of Landucci Italia.  Previously the award winning chef had owned Villagio, in Falmouth Village, where his family’s old-style techniques were offered (remember Danny Kay’s in East Falmouth?), along with today’s new and exciting Italian specialties. Landucci Italia still offers the fine aged steaks, pollo and vitello people enjoyed at Villagio. The separate Living Room Lounge, featuring wine and martini bar, also offers fabulous pizza, Stromboli, sandwiches and other lounge fair … all made with the same care rooted in Bartolomei family traditions. This is a great opportunity to hear the story of four generations of Bartolomei’s in America and see for yourself why Landucci is prized as a great restaurant with a great atmosphere to get a great meal. $39 per person.
