BETTER THAN A RESTAURANT COOKING CLASSES
My cooking classes combine techniques and ethnic flavors to bring you an experience of world cuisine. Taught in Los Angeles; I developed all the recipes to offer students a chance to try foods from many of the countries I have traveled to. Some of the cultures represented are; India, Morocco, Italy, Jamaica and Thailand. All of the classes are hands-on and include a complete meal with wine after the class. The group is comprised of a wide range of students from all backgrounds and ages. My youngest student was nine years old and my eldest eighty- so everyone is welcome. The classes are taught in two locations on the West side; Culver City at Surfas Restaurant Supply and Platine Cookies on Washington Boulevard There is plenty of free parking and a 10% discount is offered to students at Surfas. Join us for a fun and delicious class where you are sure to enjoy cooking, learning and dining.
