I walked over to the Compleat Gourmet (Belmont and Cary) to buy me a small kitchen utensil and I noticed their cooking class schedule was posted. I guess I had always known they had classes, but it occurred to me that the readers of this site might be interested in checking one of them out. Feel free to see the listings online at the Compleat Gourmet website. I have listed the classes currently on the schedule (and will periodically update the site with new listings):
Fun with Food
Whether it’s the preparation or the presentation, Victor has a sure-fire way to wow your dinner guests. He begins this class with chopped shrimp, chicken and spring vegetables presented in a martini glass and served with lettuce cups or phyllo tarts. Next, he moves to steamed black mussels served in a roasted jalapeno and rosemary broth, and grilled salmon served with drunken spaghetti noodles. His salad course consists of grilled shrimp and apples tossed with lemon zest and goat cheese.
