Free cooking classes

Everybody loves at least two of the three following words: Free Cooking Lessons 

Everyone should know how to cook at least two dishes. You should be able to rustle up something quick and satiating for yourself, and you should be able to make a dish that’ll wow the underpants off your future-spouse.

Next week, August 23-27, 2010, The Sinclair Centre and Barbara-Jo’s Books to Cooks (a fabulous little bookstore for all things food related) will be bringing you free (such a beautiful word) cooking classes that can help you head in the right direction.

Free cooking lessons in Vancouver

There’ll be two 45-minute lessons daily, covering French Food Fast, Easy Vegetarian, Savouring the Harvest, College Cooking and the Sea’s Bounty (check out the schedule for times). Each class will feature three dishes picked from among the favourites and Barbara-Jo’s Books to Cooks.

      and watch)

>  When: August 23-27 (See schedule for times)
