Next, you'll learn the secret to grilling up the perfect skirt steak garnished with salsa verde, parsley, anchovies, capers, lemons and an extra virgin olive oil drizzle!

Attending the cooking class during my visit to New York was one of my highlights from the trip. It was a small intimate class and the chef did a great job of explaining tips and processes for cooking. I highly recommend it.
