So here's the thing, the "Brown Bag Series" is a workshop which focuses on energising, feel-good health & wellness, organized by 1 Utama with their event partner Cold Storage.

At the very first Inaugural workshop which was held on the 3rd of November, 1 Utama has invited the award wining Chef Federico Michieletto who is the Head of Culinary for Marini's on 57. He is also recognized as Best Italian Chef of the Year 2012, Winner of the Gourmand award for Best Italian Book 2008 and is also the ex-president of the Chef Association of Malaysia.

Amber Chia and Chef Federico

We even had Amber Chia as their celebrity guest of the day to spice things up a little. She was ever so cheerful and ready to start to cook better than the dishes from Marini's on 57. hehe. Shoppers at the event managed to learn how to cook healthy dishes freshly prepared live by Chef Federico at the event.
