Flynn McGarry @ the White House
Wunderkind chef, 14-year old Flynn McGarry, was at the White House on Sunday for a cooking demonstration in connection with Easter. This kid is amazing and how fun that he got to do this. If you remember, we had Flynn’s Winter Menu back in January - 12 courses and 3 hours later, we emerged stuffed!

Flynn McGarry’s January Winter Menu Pop-up EUREKA at BierBeisl in Beverly Hills
Some said it was his unveiling, his debut, the beginning of his professional career. Isn’t that a lot to put on a 14-year old? Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. But Flynn McGarry is taking it all in and cranking out amazing food all at the same time. Called a culinary prodigy, Flynn has been cooking since he was 10 reportedly because he didn’t like his Mom’s cooking, or lack of cooking - he was tired of take-out. Soon his bedroom was turned into a test kitchen and they were running a monthly Supper Club out of their house. At 11, he was cooking from recipes in the French Laundry cookbook. He’s clearly got the food bug.
In late January, Tere and I were lucky enough to get off the wait list and into his Winter Tasting Menu dinner held at Bier Beisl in Beverly Hills with the help and guidance of Chef Bernhard Mairinger. The menu was pretty ridiculous - 11 or 12 courses of pure creativeness including dessert concoctions from pastry chef, Josh Graves. I made notes on the menu above that Flynn signed for me. There was a water sommelier pouring very high end bottled water from Beverly Hills 902H0. I didn’t even know water sommeliers existed.
Both Flynn’s Mom and Dad were completely involved in the dinner from seating guests, chatting and getting to know newcomers and photographing and videotaping the seemingly perfect orchestrations from the kitchen. Flynn is going somewhere and at only 14 years old, his future career is going to be long. I can only imagine where he will go, but I’m excited to go along for the ride.

Flynn McGarry’s Winter Menu
I know I haven’t written my review yet of this culinary wunderkind but here is a little video his team created from that event. If you get really close to the screen, squint your eyes just so and cock your head to one side, you might be able to see me sitting along the window. Good luck.

Teen Chef Makes Debut at Beverly Hills Restaurant
I’m so at this on Wednesday and will ABSOLUTELY blog about the experience!!
He has cooked for more than 120 people at a time, worked in top restaurants across the country, and entertains 12 people at his home monthly for an 18-course meal. These accomplishments may seem like the work of a veteran chef, but this cook is only 14 years old.
Flynn McGarry will be taking his talents to BierBeisl, an Austrian restaurant in Beverly Hills, Calif., on Jan. 30 where he will cook a 12-course meal for 40 people - an event that is already completely sold out and costs $160 a person.
“The chef at BierBeisl is super nice and said, ‘Whatever you need, I’ll help you cook,’” McGarry said. “It was a natural thing, and it works with the restaurant’s schedule and is a lot easier to do it in a restaurant. I am going into this a lot more confident than other dinners. I started working on this [Thursday], running around town getting supplies. It is a week process, which people don’t really realize.” Read More
