| - We took Crate's "Sunny Spain" Cooking With A Partner class recently and loved it! Three different tapas, paella, churros and sangria... Yumm!
Seriously fun- we learned how to cook new things together, then got to eat it.
However I have 2 complaints: the instructor was not that friendly, or helpful. This was actually ok tho bc the other women assisting with the class were delightful.
The thing that really chapped my a#% happened at the end: there was a TON of food left over, and being that we were headed to my mother's house I asked to take some paella with me for her to try. The instructor said that they don't do that. Ok, fine, pretty wasteful, but whatever. BUT, when I walked to the restroom a few minutes later I saw the women who worked there packing up all the leftovers into to- go containers! When we thought about it later, we remembered how the instructor announced that there were enough shrimp in the paella for everyone to have 2 per person- so of course, everyone only took 2. There were about a dozen per paella left when the employees whisked them off the 3 tables. No asking if everybody was finished, no asking if anybody wanted more.
Thus ensuring that they all had a delicious dinner for their families that night.
For $140 per couple, this is horse$&%#.
