Cooking demonstrations/schools
 

Hi all,

I will be in NYC 10 days over Thanksgiving and would like to do attend a cooking demonstration. I read about one at the Waldorf (but can't remember where) where you spend a few hours in the kitchen with chef. I checked their website but can't find details. Does anyone know of this or similar?

I like the idea of being in one of the great hotel kitchens or some specialty store - I don't want to spend more than a few hours/half a day at most. There is so much I want to cram in.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Check out the schedule at

pricey, but really good people

or try:
http://www.degustibusinc.com/
Which doesn't seem to be a good link, but maybe it will work for you - it's the cooking demos/school at Macy's - they have a GREAT list/calendar of people coming up over the next 6 months.

And finally, try
http://www.frenchculinary.com/news_newsevents.htm which sometimes has half day classes

mp, thanks for posting this. Although the Macy's link doesn't work, I found quite a few others that did. We're planning a Sept trip and thought something like this would be fun. Thanks baysidegirl for starting the thread.

also check out the institute for culinary education

astor center is also great for having very interesting food and wine offerings.
