Learning never tasted so good! Sign up now as programs fill very quickly. Preregistration is required. Each program is limited to 6 participants. Ages 12 and up. Max 2 participants per family. (Note: your registration date determines the order in which you get to pick amongst the selected dishes, so register early!) Cost for programs: $65 per person plus estimated $10-15 food costs.
