Gluten Free Cooking Session - Nov. 7th start date

We are starting a new cooking class on Sunday Nov. 14th from 5-7:30pm. It will run for 6 sessions and the cost including food will be $200 per participant. We will be doing numerous recipes each week and have lots of breads, cakes, pizza, pasta, and all kinds of foods that would have wheat in them but don't.

Please note that individual classes are $45. each (limited enrollment availability so book early).

The classes will be in my home in the Glebe very near the corner of Bank St. and Fifth Ave.
Please let me know if you are interested.
