For SL’s dinner party, we played it simple – serving the Chicken Sauvignon Blanc with a flavorful tri-color orzo salad from Giada de Laurentiis. With all the hustle and bustle going on in SL’s kitchen (I was trying to save a banana pudding dessert that kinda went the wrong way), I didn’t take the multitude of pics I normally do with a recipe. However, as SL and crew will attest, once it was plated, I flew out to the dining room to get the beauty shot.

Sad news – the Giada de Laurentiis King of Prussia event is currently sold out, but I’ve got it on good authority that the event that starts at 5:00 at the Williams Sonoma located in the Bellevue in Center City has a few tickets left. Call them at 215.545.7392 to reserve yours.
Here is the current book tour schedule that was recently released. Make sure to call the store and verify that the event is still on and to reserve your ticket. If she heads to a location near you, be sure to tell us all about it!

On April 1, 2010 Philly is getting a visit from Food Network’s resident everyday Italian, Giada de Laurentiis. Starting at 1:00 p.m., Giada de Laurentiis is coming to Williams Sonoma in King of Prussia to sign copies of her new cookbook, Giada At Home: Family Recipes from Italy & California.
I have attended book signings here before and Williams Sonoma’s corporate management should be thrilled because the KOP Williams Sonoma runs a great event. So, if you plan on attending, you better hurry up and reserve your copy of the new cookbook because space is limited.
Williams Sonoma is located at 160 North Gulph Road, King of Prussia, phone number is 610-265-5970.
Make sure to tell them that Cooking In Stilettos sent you!
Thanks to the fabulous gals over at GiadasKitchen.com I happened to catch this interesting video from the Today Show where Giada de Laurentiis talks about the 10 Essential Tools For Your Kitchen…

During a cold winter arctic blast there is nothing better than a piping hot dish of baked pasta. While watching Everyday Italian the other day, Giada made Cheesy Baked Tortellini and since I had company, I needed to get dinner on the table fast. Thankfully, most of the ingredients were already in my pantry so I only had to go track down the smoked mozzarella. This dish was perfect. The flavors of the roasted chicken tortellini that I selected went well with the smoked mozzarella and fresh marscapone from Claudio’s in the Italian Market (ahhh – love that place!). This is one of those recipes that will make you want to curl up on the couch and say “Ahhhhhh”
