Description:
It's back! For many years, we had a great tradition of a monthly Tuesday lunch for our Overland Park community. We're thrilled to announce that Tuesday lunch is back! We had the first successful lunch this August. For just $20, savor a delicious pre-set menu crafted by our expert chefs while getting a taste of our vibrant culinary community. Each month, we will have a Tuesday lunch with a unique menu prepared by our amazing chefs. For September, we will be featuring foods that celebrate the arrival of Fall, including an incredible BBQ Pulled Pork Parfait by Chef Vicky and BBQ Master Larry Hadley, and a Caramel Apple Bread Pudding with Crème Anglaise by Chef Catie.

There are two seatings for this lunch. This ticket is for the first seating:

• First: 11:00am to 12:30pm
• Second: 12:30pm to 2:00pm

This lunch is more than a meal—it's an introduction to our world of cooking classes and gourmet retail offerings. Meet fellow food enthusiasts, chat with our chefs, and discover the joy of cooking in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. At the lunch, you will meet our three CCKC chefs who have prepared your delicious lunch.
