Star Chef, Author & Content Creator Olivia Tiedemann Joins Voltaggio Brothers for "House Guest" Series at MGM National Harbor, September 17

Prince George’s County’s dining and entertainment scene will take center stage on Thursday, September 17, when star chef, author, and content creator Olivia Tiedemann joins acclaimed chefs Michael and Bryan Voltaggio for a special edition of the “House Guest” dinner series at Voltaggio Brothers Steak House at MGM National Harbor.

The one-night-only culinary collaboration will feature an innovative five-course menu inspired by Tiedemann’s new cookbook, Eat (Like) the Rich. The three chefs will combine their distinctive culinary styles, techniques, and creativity to deliver an interactive dining experience for guests.

Throughout the evening, diners will have an opportunity to watch the chefs at work and hear the inspiration behind each course. Guests will also receive a signed copy of Tiedemann’s cookbook as a keepsake from the experience.

A Culinary Reunion at National Harbor

The September dinner reunites longtime culinary friends Tiedemann and the Voltaggio brothers, who previously worked together as part of the star-studded culinary lineup at the Bellagio Fountain Club during the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The experience resulted in the trio getting matching racing tattoos, which can now be seen on the cover of Tiedemann’s new cookbook.

“We are so excited to team up with Olivia at our Maryland ‘home’ to create an evening that will wow our guests,” said Chef Michael Voltaggio. “Chef Tiedemann’s bold style and culinary prowess offer unlimited possibilities for what we can create together.”

Tiedemann said returning to Maryland to collaborate with the brothers makes the experience particularly meaningful.

“I’m thrilled to partner with Michael and Bryan for this special event at MGM National Harbor,” Tiedemann said. “They have always been so supportive of my culinary journey, so it’s an honor to be part of their ‘House Guest’ series to cook alongside them in this unique setting.”

Chef Bryan Voltaggio added, “Olivia is a true star in every sense of the word with the culinary chops to back it up. We cannot wait to put our brains together and put on a show our guests will always remember.”

A Destination for Culinary Experiences

Special events such as the “House Guest” series further strengthen National Harbor’s position as a regional destination for dining, hospitality, entertainment, and tourism while bringing nationally recognized culinary talent to Prince George’s County.
