So this week I had another publisher event like I usually do. But I was pleasantly surprised this time to see that it wasn't the usual dinner and work chat. My reps at Gorilla Nation and Girls Life.com took the team to a cooking class at the Blue Ribbon Cooking School in Seattle. I have to say....I recommend this for any girls night, family event, work team function, or even date night. It is a little pricey but you get to learn how to make two different appetizers, two side dishes, two main dishes, and two deserts! During the entire process you get cooking tips and tricks from a top local chef, get to taste various wines, and at the end you all get to sit down and relax while you taste your hard work. They teach a variety of classes from southern cuisine, Thai cuisine, Asian cuisine, to French and new American dishes. During our session we made flat iron steaks with a Cabernet Sauvignon balsamic reduction, salt crusted whole herb chickens, chickpea and pesto pasta, herb stuffed roasted tomatoes, berry cobbler, and profiteroles with coffee ice-cream and chocolate and caramel sauce. I haven't had this much fun at a work function in a long time, and I cant wait to try it sometime with friends and family. If you would like to check out any more info on the place, I have provided to website below. Enjoy..and if any of our friends out there are interested in getting a group together sometime to try it...let us know!
