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 :)
