FEATURED CLASS

Adult Class: Filipino Classics

A mix of sweet, sour, salty, and savoury, the incredible flavours of the Philippines blend cooking styles from China, Spain, and Malaysia. Although Filipino cuisine is gaining popularity in Canada, it remains underrepresented compared to many other Asian cuisines. Join Chef/Culinary Instructor John Bela as we create dishes that reflect the warm, sharing culture of the Philippines. Together, we'll prepare traditional Filipino Pork and Vegetable Fried Lumpia, Pork Belly Pancit Noodles, and the unofficial national dish, Chicken Adobo. For dessert, enjoy Leche Flan, the Filipino version of crme caramel. Discover the vibrant flavours of the Philippines! NOTE: Special Early Bird Offer. Register by September 8 and save $10. Pay just $60 (regular price $70).
