Reservations required. Menu and photos from previous events posted online at www.roundz.com "Roundz After Dark" page. Contact 443.292.4631 for reservations.

* Family Chef's Challenge
Monday, April 1 at 11 AM
Following the success of our January competition, we're taking advantage of this school holiday with another Family Chef's Challenge! Here's how it works: Four teams of two people each will compete in a light-hearted, no-stress cooking contest. Participants will take a tour of the Roundz kitchen and have access to the Roundz pantry and equipment, with Chef Pope on hand to offer guidance.
After the Mystery Ingredient is revealed, teams will have 90 minutes to prepare and plate a culinary creation. Are we looking for “fantasy food?” No way. Make what you know! Entries from a recent Chef's Challenge included meatloaf, gourmet burgers and pizza.
This event is open to all ages, but children MUST be partnered with a parent or adult guardian. Entry fee: $50 per team. Winning team will receive a gourmet dinner for 4 from Roundz. Reservations required: 443.292.4631
