Welcome

24 hours to cancel. Within that time, you can pick another date agreeable to both parties. If no other date is desired, I'll refund 1/2 of your deposit. 

Tipping is not expected but appreciated.  Tips will go to my helper, not to me. 

Your friends and family, a sense of curiosity and no preconceived notions! A clean kitchen island/counter, clean empty sink, clean empty dishwasher, clean cooking range or cook top. I will use some of your cooking equipment, utensils, bowls and service ware as needed.   

2-3 pots and pans which I know will work for the meal. A helper to clean and leave the cooking space as clean as when we arrived. Groceries, if desired (see above). Supplemental ingredients, harder to find at Giant/Weis, etc. I will teach and talk through all the recipes. Everyone will get recipe cards to take home. I will also educate the group on weeknight cooking, pantry cooking, food storage or management, knife skills. 

Cooking involves heat, hot oil, sharp knives, food allergies. Waivers will be signed for all guests before class to make sure everyone is aware of the risk. Food allergies should be disclosed before your event. I am not able to accommodate those with Celiac Disease or severe life-threatening food allergies.  Any photos taken during the event might be posted to social media or website.  Should you or your guests not want to be featured, please let me know ahead of time.

I can accommodate Vegetarians, nut-free, minor Gluten intolerances, shellfish allergies. 

I can not accommodate major life threatening food allergies.  All food allergies must be disclosed by the host prior to shopping and while agreeing on a menu.  

Cilantro is used in many recipes.  If you do not like cilantro, please let me know ahead of time.
