Michael Geiger, Gastronome
In an effort give ourselves an ounce of credibilty here we’re pleased to announce the addition of gastronome Michael Geiger to our panel of experts.
Michael is a formally trained culinarian. He has taught at the Mirepoix cooking school, located at Holiday Market in Royal Oak, and currently coordinates the Taste of Eastern Market cooking demonstrations (as well as being one of the participating chefs).
Additionally, he sits on the fund rasing committee of the Michigan Chefs de Cuisine Association (MCCA).
Michael has studied beverages (alcohol and non) extensively and wants to help us to better understand what we’re drinking: the flavors, textures and ingredients. He’s picky and precise, with a well-developed palate and an intolerance for poor quality – that’s what we love about him!
He’s been an unofficial consultant (receiving many phone calls and email inquiries from us) since the beginning of the Drink Tank. Today we raise our glass to him and offer a welcoming toast as he comes aboard as part of our official team!

Yeah, he’s alright and all. I guess a glass of Maker’s Mark can be raised.
