A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to be invited to a small women's networking event at the Los Angeles home of Linda Press. Linda, who owns a boutique public relations agency, invited her friend
Chef Kelly to make a Chinese New Year celebration lunch for the group and show us how to make a few of the dishes. I hope you enjoy these images from the day. For recipes, see
Chef Kelly's blog.

I made dumplings for lunch today. It certainly never crossed my mind to fill them with elk! Thanks for an informative, fun blog post :)
Looks yummy and authentic! :)
What a beautiful meal...those elk dumplings look and sound amazing. Thank you for sharing your words and these photographs. And thank you for your kind thoughts on my own blog. I appreciate you!
