Caffè Letterario Speaker Series presents Jerry Pellegrino

Italian Cultural Center of Maryland's Caffè Letterario is an intimate conversation with selected guests about the arts, community and culture over coffee and pastries in the classic Italian style.  It facilitates the sharing of our culture with a diverse community, encouraging and supporting education, creativity, curiosity, respect for history, respect for the arts and respect for each other.  JERRY PELLEGRINO February 2, 2020 - 3:00 PM Jerry is fascinated by food and wine, and the way they work in harmony on the palate. His understanding of the two goes all the way to the molecular level, drawing on his advanced education in molecular biology at Johns Hopkins. His cuisine is simple and surprising, pairing unexpected ingredients together to work with his restaurant’s extensive wine offerings’. Jerry has been teaching cooking and wine tasting classes in Baltimore for over fifteen years and entertaining the city for almost that long as the co-host of ‘Radio Kitchen’ on WYPR, 88.1FM with his uncanny knack for communicating even the most esoteric concepts to the general public through his ever-present, engaging sense of humor.
