Description

Sergio Herman accepts nothing less than perfection in his kitchen. The master chef at Oud Sluis has dedicated years to ensuring his restaurant’s nightly offerings consistently exceed expectations in both beauty and flavor. But the ceaseless demands of the kitchen are clearly running the 43-year-old and his family into the ground. So in 2013, Sergio sacrifices his life’s work to fulfill the next phase of his dreams. With an exquisite eye as precise as her subject, Willemiek Kluijfhout’s fly-on-the-wall technique captures Sergio’s restless passion as he ventures out to expand his empire. After the film, stay for a candid conversation between stars of the Northern Michigan food scene, and sample bites prepared by the chefsand inspired by the film. Tickets for this special screening are $15. Participating Chefs: Jennifer Blakeslee & Eric Patterson, The Cooks House; Gary Jonas, The Little Fleet; French Clements, Frenchies Famous.
