SUMMER 2010 COOKING CLASSES
Just because the hot summer days have arrived, it doesn't mean that the cooking comes to a halt. If anything, cooking outdoors intensifies. So, let's get cooking, outside. Grill, Baby, Grill! Entertaining is more casual. More seasonal. More delicious. Cooking from the Farmer's Markets, from the gardens and from the barbie. Classes for every level from beginner to intermediate. Beer tastings, market shopping, picnic foods, girls night out, and of course, dining al fresco on the patio.
Let's get cooking this summer!
Classes begin at 6 pm, except the Farmer's Market Class which starts at 9 am on Saturdays, downtown, on the SW corner of 3rd West and 3rd South.
