Ever since Publix Aprons Cooking School closed, I've been looking for a cooking school that has fun adult classes. The Kitchen House has just started a monthly "book club" called Plot to Plate where they feature a book that relates to or includes recipes. This month was Lessons in Chemistry so my friends and I decided to attend. We bought our tickets in advance as classes can sell out. The classes are different prices depending on what the class is. The house is in a residential neighborhood in College Park and does not have a dedicated parking lot so I would suggest getting there early as you have to find a spot along the street. When we arrived, we were greeted and given a welcome drink, in this case Cardamom Decaf Coffee because it was cold out. One of the instructors said that normally we would walk the garden at the beginning of class and also eat outdoors but since it was cold, we were going to skip the garden and eat inside. Once everyone arrived (cooking classes can have up to 20 people), we met in the lobby to start talking about different themes of the book. Then it was time to wash up and go to the kitchen. All the ingredients were set out for us and we picked the Veggie Pot Pie table with other attendees. The instructor gave us some knife skills lessons and then we all started cooking, using the recipes at our station. Each station makes one recipe so you don't get to make everything. And, the instructors and volunteers don't show you how to make everything first (like Publix Aprons used to do). But, if you just dig in and start going, it is a lot of fun. We had some questions along the way, like is there a spatula we can use? Or, is this the flour or the cornstarch? The volunteers were great and answered everything in a friendly way. As it said you could do in the welcome email we received before the class, some folks brought their own wine and the Kitchen House provided glasses and would pour for you. I think if we go back, we would definitely bring our own wine. My friends and I made the drop biscuits for the Veggie Pot Pie, which were surprisingly easy to make. We were finished early so we also make the Brownies for dessert that used olive oil and maple syrup instead of butter and sugar. When everyone was done cooking, we gathered in the lobby again while the volunteers cleaned and set up the table for dinner. Then, it was time to eat! Dinner was served buffet style and the Kitchen House split our food for people who had different dietary restrictions. For example, some of the recipes used non-dairy alternatives as some people in the class were lactose intolerant and one person had a mushroom allergy so they got a small spinach gallette instead of the mushroom Gallette for everyone else. As we sat down to eat, we discussed the book more in depth. Everything tasted great and we had a wonderful time. We received all the recipes in an email after the class so we could make the foods at home. I will definitely be looking at other adult classes here.

From the moment we walked in to the time we left we felt right at home, and had smiles on our faces. The afternoon began with a walk through Lynn's Herb garden which is a breath taking backyard that is filled with a beautiful butterfly garden to delicious fresh herbs that make you appreciate nature and all that it offers. Lynn was so humble and accommodating. After lots of chatting that was so informative and easy going that I could have done for much longer but, alas we had to start cooking. We jumped in to making our 4 course meal! Everything was already for us to go from the recipes perfectly set up for us to follow to all the ingredients we would need. Lynn took the time to really teach us and show us about the art of cooking. I never felt lost or out of place. I can honestly say I learned so much in just a few hours and have a much more deeper appreciation for healthy organic home made cooking. And it was FUN! A written review from me could be a whole book about what a wonderful, special and fun afternoon we had cooking with Lynn. After learning about spices, meats and cooking our own personalized 4 course meal we all sat down to a very quant well decorated set table and tasted what we had cooked. Each bite was delicious and the conversation felt as though I was at home sitting with family and friends. Over all I can without a doubt give this cooking class with Lynn 5 stars. I would recommend this class for couples, families, friends, and anyone from beginner to advanced. This class gave my partner and I a chance to work together and create a healthy meal and best of all create a lasting memory that we hope to do again very soon! This was a perfect birthday gift that I gave to my partner and he was beyond thrilled.
