Description

In 1827, before Delmonicos opened, diners ate at cafes and boarding houses (inns), where the food was simply the food available that day from the farms. Diners had no choice of dishes, but ate the food that was served. Delmonicos changed all of that. Todays guest is Billy Oliva, graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and currently the Executive Chef at Delmonicos. This program has been sponsored by Heritage Foods USA. Todays music provided by Pamela Royal. [Delmonicos] is history. And when you walk through the door you feel that way. [5:15] Ireland is not really known for food but that has changed so much.
