 "Jacksonville Home + Patio Show")
Calling All Foodies!
When the Jacksonville Home + Patio Show returns for the spring edition, their 50th milestone will be celebrated with even more fun for foodies. Not only will local food trucks rally on Sunday but on Friday too – the I Know Jax Cooking Stage returns with cooking demos from North Florida’s most beloved chefs.
Returning to the show is Blue Bamboo’s Dennis Chan. Chef Dennis is known for his “hip Asian comfort food”, like his take on Chicken Pot Pie. Perfect for winter nights (well, here in Florida – when the temp falls below 65), this recipe uses Panko and fried chicken to put a twist on an old fave.
