Cooking Class: The Best of Bistro Dining
Find out for yourself how French bistro style makes dining beautiful in an exciting Parisian-themed cooking class, courtesy of Chef John. He's arranged a menu filled with the most flavorful dishes from the home of courmet cuisine. Start by preparing seafood with Normandy-style mussels simmered in white wine before turning out a perfect cheese soufflé. Learn the traditional technique for transforming beef and vegetables into a five-star boeuf Bourguignon. And of course, there's dessert, a classic chocolate cake flavored with pralines and hazelnuts for sweet crunch. Bon appetit!

The Thai Cooking class provided great recipes. Chef John provided good demonstration and offered lots of tips about where to buy recipe ingredients, and tips for buying the best products. He showed us how to slice the meat on the grain and the order for adding the veggies, spices and herbs. Plus, he was helpful and had a fun and comedic manner. Very enjoyable. Bring containers as you will make more food than you can eat. Plus, you can buy wine and beer.

Had a fun time at the tapas class - been trying to make Spanish tortilla for awhile now and got to learn little tricks and hear Chef John's suggestions. Was a delicious meal as well with mushrooms, prawns, meatballs and more :)
