Legendary DJ Paul Oakenfold and Executive Chef Geno Bernardo Co-Host a Cooking Class at Nove Italiano

Internationally-acclaimed producer and resident DJ for the weekly “Perfecto Vegas” party at Rain Nightclub, Paul Oakenfold and Executive Chef Geno Bernardo hosted a unique cooking class at Nove Italiano inside Palms Casino Resort on Saturday, April 30 (Photo credit: Ryen McPherson/Shoot to Kill Media).  

Before his days behind the DJ booth, Oakenfold was a professional chef in the kitchen, and Oakenfold showed guests he still had it as he used his culinary skills alongside Chef Geno. Guests learned step-by-step instructions on how to make five courses, including signature items from Nove’s menu such as Shrimp Francaise and a British tradition and one of Oakenfold’s favorite, the Sunday Roast.

Throughout the class, patrons sipped on the Luxury Drop cocktail, featuring Don Julio and fresh cucumber juice, created by Mixologist Jack “Sugar” O’Brien. Participants indulged in the five courses as they enjoyed the atmosphere in the main dining room. To complete the experience, guests enjoyed savory Apple Pie, created by Executive Pastry Chef Victor Solano.

Nove Italiano is open Sunday through Thursday from 6 – 10:30 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 6 – 11 p.m. Reservations are recommended and can be made by visiting www.novelasvegas.com or calling 702.942.6800.
