Recipes change as fresh food availability changes with the seasons. I strive to keep recipe ingredients as local and seasonal as possible. So, what you see on the menu today may not be an option when the seasons change.

Team building events & cooking demonstrations 

Recipe ingredients cost you exactly what they cost us, based on market price. Team building and party services include shopping, facilitation, handouts, digital catalog, food storage and clean up of cooking area and cooking utensils, on a per hour basis. 

Personal Kitchen Coaching is a mentoring collaboration. (see pricing).
