Great venue offering cooking classes as well as pre-made and kit food options from local small,…read more independent vendors. The class we attended was a ravioli making class where we did the full recipe from start to finish. There were two lead chefs and an assistant helping to pass out small apps, distribute tools, and clean up. There is a bar area that if self serve and at the end you're asked to pay for what you consumed. It would be nice if prices were posted, but drinks are about what you'd pay at any local bar. Overall, subtracting the food included and what it would cost at a restaurant, the class was about $35-$40 for a three hour experience. Afterwards they emailed out the recipes for what was made. I'd definitely try another class there as it was a fun time and great for couples or larger groups.

Tonight we thoroughly enjoyed the Tribute Show & A Neil Diamond Story, featuring Denny Svehla at…read moreChef Pam's Kitchen. For about $80, before tips, we were entertained by Denny S as he sang so many Neil Diamond songs. And if you were not looking, you could hear Neil singing in his wonderful voice. The music was presented between the incredible 4 courses, and allowed for conversations over the delicious dishes that were freshly prepared for us. Start with a nice variety of beverages (for purchase) with a bruschetta appetizer. Follow this by a light salad with fresh bread, and then to the entree of chicken breast with Prosciutto in a lemon sauce with mashed potatoes and sauteed carrots. Finish the meal with a light lemon cake with whipped cream, and not only was my appetite satisfied, but so was my appreciation for perfection in presentation. Chef Pam's Kitchen is a multi-use spot in downtown, serving special event dinners, cooking sessions, and offering locally prepared treats of all kinds. Local pastry chefs have access to the well-appointed bakery area. With all the food prep areas open to view, it is highly impressive to see the cleanliness and exceptional equipment in use. Our evening of entertainment and dining was wonderful. There are many more events planned here, and I recommend watching their offerings, especially if you like to have fun and great food!

She was there when she needed to be, stepped back when she felt he "got it" and cheered him along throughout the morning.

I highly recommend this class and I thank Chef Morgan for making the day a special one for Ben!

Sadly, they did not sell cheese bags anymore. At least I don't think they do, I never saw a single employee as I went through the entire store. Everything was laid out and labeled well, so I doubt I missed them, but I will never know because there was no one there to ask!

Overall, I had a pleasant experience at The Classic Room. As a forewarning, you must make a…read morereservation. Not because it gets busy, but because that is how this restaurant operates. Given that this is essentially a learning lab for the culinary students at WCTC, you need to schedule a time beforehand that aligns with the students' schedules. As far as I know, The Classic Room is only open on weekdays. The dining area itself was beautiful. Lots of tables, a piano, and lovely views. Our table was set up near a picture window, so we had a beautiful backdrop while we ate our lunch. In terms of food and drink, there were some aspects that were great and some that were far below average. The blackberry iced tea was watery and didn't have much flavor. The Arnold Palmer was exactly what you'd expect - the perfect mix of tea and lemonade. A warm basket of bread was delivered with a couple sausage rolls tucked inside. It was a nice touch. I ordered the New England clam chowder to start (not pictured). It was flavorful and piping hot. The other members in my party ordered the minestrone and cream of mushroom soup and they enjoyed them as well. The entrées were not as delicious. One member of my party ordered the ribs. According to her, the ribs themselves were fantastic and tender but the potato and asparagus were ice cold. I ordered the poussin and it was not good. Parts of it were incredibly undercooked (which is NOT okay when it comes to poultry). The rice was well seasoned but lukewarm. Another member of my party ordered the bison meatballs and she thought every part of her entrée was average, but warm and edible nonetheless. The REAL star of the show was the dessert. All of us ordered the chocolate decadence and it was incredibly rich. The sauce and berries cut through the density perfectly and the dish was so well balanced. The presentation was nice, even though it kind of looked like a meatball. If you've been curious about trying out The Classic Room at WCTC, I'd give it a shot. But do keep in mind that these students are still learning, so don't expect Michelin Star quality.

The upside to Boelter is Saturday hours, parking lot and a modern showroom. First - they have EVERYTHING. I mean it - pots, pans, utensils, weird serving dishes, prep stuff, bathrobes, coffee pots, giant potato mashers, chef shoes, cleaning supplies, huge deep fryers and Brewers Tupperware. Have you ever wished for one of those little silver dishes that restaurants put butter pats in? Look no further - it's yours for a mere $2. Second - staff is kind and helpful. They'll explain how it works to newbies and then let you go on your own personal voyage of discovery. Third - prices. They are good. A Wusthof chefs knife for $30? A sleeve of 100 jello shot cups for $1.29? Brewers Tupperware set of $15? All present and accounted for. They're a great source for catering/big party supplies too. They even sell paper chef hats (the tall, cylindrical ones) by the case - who doesn't need that? Fourth - Cooking classes. The fine people at Sur la Table have the balls to charge $70 per PERSON for a class. Boelter is $35 which includes a $25 credit to the store = $10 class. Most are taught by Michael Feker so that's going to be....entertaining. In conclusion, there's no better place to go when you need a turnip twaddler or whatnot for some obscure recipe. They'll have it and they'll have it at a fair price.
