Overview:
Join us for the first dinner in our new Guest Chef Dinner Series. Chef Tal Peeler takes the helm, offering a chef’s table experience where you’ll dine, learn, and observe. This isn’t a cooking class — it’s a plated, multi-course evening where Tal will walk you through his methods, flavor combinations, and his approach to each dish. Guests will have the chance to step into the kitchen, watch preparation, ask questions, and engage directly with the chef.

About Chef Tal Peeler:
Tal got his start right here at C’est si Bon! Cooking School before spending 15 years cooking in the Triangle’s best kitchens — including Nofo, Crawford & Son, Postmaster, and Royale. His roots are in Southern cuisine, but his craft draws heavily from Latin and Italian traditions. Tal’s vision for this dinner is bold: expect rich textures, seasonal ingredients, and refined flavor.
