It is one of the ultimate winter comfort foods and I want to make you some. Last year I made my first cassoulet ever at Jimmy's No 43 Cassoulet Contest, and this year on January 12th I am signed up once more. This fun event benefits the NYC Greenmarket, and I promise you will have a great time, eat great cassoulet and drink from an array of seasonal beer, wine and cider offerings!'s
Please buy a ticket and come by Jimmy's No 43 on January 12th for a delicious afternoon of good will and good cheer!
