Chef Eddie cooks at FSW – Florida Southwest College – Farmers Market
Fort Myers, FL – (Oct. 28, 2015) – Chef Eddie, from the University Grill located on Cypress Lake Dr. and Summerlin Ave. in Fort Myers, will be at the Farmer’s Market at Florida Southwest College (FSW) on Sat., Nov. 7th from 10am until noon. He’ll be located at the Maverick Meat tent, creating a wonderful dish showcasing their prime grade meats that they distribute locally to fine restaurants throughout Southwest Florida. University Grill uses their steaks as do restaurants on 5th Ave. S. and 3rd St. in Naples. Locals are able to purchase their excellent cuts of beef at all six of the Local Roots Markets. “I have loved cooking since I was a young boy,” stated Chef Eddie. “Having prime cuts available and being able to integrate fresh local ingredients will be wonderful and will give market patrons an idea of how they can use many of the tempting items found at the market on that day.”
