Let’s cook, eat, and toast together in December! I’m offering a Georgian cooking class and wine dinner for 10 people at a private home in northwest DC. I have one spot left! The event is now full, but submit your details below to put yourself on the waitlist. I will notify you via e-mail if a spot opens up.

Thanks to Whitney Pipkin, who took this picture at a dinner I prepared along with Wendy Stuart of Food Works Group. The photo was also featured in the Washington Post (Mar. 3, 2015).

I’ll teach you how to make three classic Georgian dishes (including Ajaran khachapuri), then we’ll all sit down to devour the fruits of our labor (plus a few of my own) over Georgian wine and conversation. I’ll provide enough wine for approximately two glasses a person, but you’re welcome to bring a bottle of your own to share with the group if you like.

Sunday, Dec. 13
5:30-8:30 pm
$75 per person
Address will be sent after ticket purchase

PLEASE NOTE: Your reservation is confirmed only once your payment has been processed. (I will notify you when this happens.) If you need to cancel your reservation, please notify me as far in advance as possible. I can only provide a refund if I am able to fill your spot(s) with others. This is purely to recoup my costs, as several seats for this event were donated through silent auctions to support Tbilisi flood relief efforts and educational exchange programs between the US and Georgia.

We had a great time cooking at YMCA Anthony Bowen last month. If you missed it last time around, sign up for my November class. We’ll make Ajaran khachapuri (a perfect stick-to-your-bones dish for fall and winter) and two other Georgian dishes. (Got favorites? I’m taking suggestions for another day or two!)

Monday, November 16, 7-9 pm
