My friend Raquel, who I've told you about before is hosting another fun cooking class that's coming up in October. The theme intrigued me, as it's Latin and I'm a huge fan of this sizzlin' cuisine. Here are the deets, and if you're interested, make sure you RSVP on Raquel's Eventbrite page. The classes are small in size, so you get tons of personal attention and you'll also gain great knowledge about food preparation and fresh recipe ideas.
A Pinch of Salt - Latin Cooking Class
Private Kitchen Studio in NYC's Theater District (you'll get the specifics upon registering)

The Menu!

Stewed chicken aka "pollo guisao"
Puerto Rican pork shoulder aka "pernil"
Platanos con ajo garlic, fried plantains with garlic

Wow...my mouth is watering. Find out more on Raquel's blog, A Pinch of Salt and I can't wait to hear what you think.
It is called "Gandules" and also "Gisado" is actually "Guisado"
