What’s Cooking in 2009?

There's much to look forward to this year, including new cooking classes from Parties That Cook! These hands-on instructional classes will be open to the public and cover a range of topics like Italian cuisine, farmer's market cooking, the art of tapas, wine tasting & pairing, cooking for couples, and more! We will also continue to specialize in corporate team building and training events with availability year-round.

Coming up next month: “Steam, Simmer and Seduce” with a selection of Valentine’s Day cooking classes, including a romantic Date Night for Couples and a casual Wine Tasting & Cooking Class for Singles!
