You are cordially invited to Studio F’s second event on May 10, 11, and 12 with Chef Jenna Johansen, a Colorado-based chef who stars on Bravo’s new reality cooking show, Around the World in 80 Plates, airing May 9.

“Join Chef Jenna Johansen as she takes her guests on a global culinary adventure to celebrate her debut on Bravo’s most ambitious show to-date,” said Studio F Owner James Mazzio.

Housed in the historic Ice House Building in LoDo, Studio F, formerly Mise en Place (cooking school), brings a new kind of culinary entertainment to Denver. Using the pop-up restaurant concept, Studio F creates one-of-kind dining experiences that allow guests to interact with rising local and nationally renowned chefs.

Johansen’s five-course paired wine and cocktail dinner is a global celebration featuring flavors from around the world while paying respect to each region’s culture and heritage. Johansen begins in Spain with a trio of tapas and moves on to Thailand, so guests may enjoy lap chong salad paired with a beautiful cocktail featuring Mekhong, the spirit of Thailand. Attendees will move on to Johansen’s favorite country, Italy, and work their way to France, finishing in Morocco with a one-of-a-kind m'hanncha, a snake-shaped cake surrounded by almond-stuffed dates and the partner to end most Moroccan meals, warm mint tea with a creative cocktail twist.

“I’m thrilled to join one of my favorite Colorado chefs, James Mazzio, as we celebrate the opening of Studio F and the debut of my new show,” said Johansen. “I want to give my guests a little bit of flavor from all of my favorite parts of the world.”

Each evening will feature two seatings (6:00 pm and 8:15 pm), and tickets are $100. Tickets may be purchased online by visiting www.studioflodo.com.
