Light your fires and start your grills; the summer school schedule offers 150 new cooking classes. Don’t miss out on some fabulous menus!
Some highlights include an exciting Iron Chef competition and a return visit to Revival where the class gets to cook in their spectacular outside restaurant kitchen. Kevin Nashan of Sidney Street will cook straight from the bounty of a local farm.Â
Please welcome new chefs Joe Nanthavong of Land of Smile and Nick McCormick of An American Place. After a hiatus, we are so happy to have Eric Brenner of Moxy, Jay Dedkard of Oishi Sushi, and Robin Murphy of Bailey’s Chocolate Bar back cooking in our kitchen.
My favorite class titles are “Planet of the Crepes,” a barbeque and beer class called “Q and Ale,” and a chocolate class called “Dark Side of the Spoon.”
What are your favorite titles?
I also like “Q and Ale,” but I think my favorite is “Catch-Her In The Rye.”
Read the class schedule and loved a number of classes, but they were all hands-on. I really don’t like hands-on classes and there are too many of them. I want to learn something not have things going on all at once and not be able to take notes. Besides the “cooks” all get in the way. There are too many hands-on classes. I want to learn from an expert. It’s difficult to take notes with everyone talking at once. Who knows if it ends up the way it was intended by the chef.
Thank you for your comments. Hands-on classes are very popular, but we do have lots of demonstration classes. If you type in “demonstration” under “class type” in our Cooking Class schedule, you will see 70 demonstration classes available. Some of the chefs who are teaching demonstration classes are Lou Rook, Vince Bommarito, jr., Bernard Pilon, Helen Fletcher, Joshua Galliano, Vito Racanelli, Eric Brenner, and Kevin Nashan!
