A unique thirty minute program presented by KYVE Tv in partnership with Memorial Hospital featuring Valley chefs, their favorite recipes, fresh local ingredients, and encouragement for home cooks to experiment with new flavors while meeting personal nutritional needs.
Join veteran restaurateur, Gayla Games as she hosts local chefs and nutritional experts who will demonstrate a few of their favorite recipes while incorporating local products and a plethora of ingredient variations. The dishes will be paired with local beverages including wine, ale and non-alcoholic beverage selections made right here in the Valley. Viewers will learn new ways to cook their favorite restaurant meals at home including some ingredient substitutions for those wishing to personalize the meal, change up flavors and/or meet personal health and nutritional needs. These tips will encourage the home chef to venture beyond the traditional recipe and to create unique home dining experiences. The show will feature some well known restaurants and some little known culinary treasures yet to be discovered.
The purpose of this program is to provide opportunities for viewers to:
• Discover new dining experiences
• Experience new flavors
• Indulge in the pleasures of a meal prepared by local chefs
• Try their hand at preparing favorite restaurant meals at home
• Learn how to utilize various ingredients to personalize their favorite recipes
Initially, there will be six programs recorded at the Yakima Valley Museum. The museum offers a unique visual environment as well as a professional kitchen for food storage and pre-preparation. Each program will feature one local restaurant/chef.
The program will air a minimum of two times per month:

I am confused. Where and when is this 30 minute, program? Exhibition? Dvd?
Thank you to all for bringing this to us. It’s nice to get some gourmet recipes from local chefs, and its especially nice that they are healthy and can be made lower in calories! Looking forward to the rest…
It airs on KYVE and we will be posting video of each show on this blog. Hope you enjoy the recipes.
