"Thank you for a delightful Friday Date Night - a Night in Paris! The group was delightful; the food delicious; the learning excellent; the wines far better than expected. Joyce and I had a wonderful time and will do it again. Meeting the chefs and the "dates" was fun. Again, thanks so very much. I used the Los Vascos chardonnay from Chile with crab cakes last night and a great fit! Thanks again."

"We tried the Gold Rush Martinis last night and boy....were they good! The hardest to find ingredient was the Calvados...but thanks to my neighborhood gourmet market, they had some imported from France! What a great recipe!"

"I sent out an e-mail to all my friends about the wine club and signed up myself on line this morning. I think it is a wonderful idea. I love the wines that you have and feel the price is fantastic. You do not have to pay a lot of money for a great bottle of wine".

"When we moved to La Quinta, our LA friends would ask me 'what are you going to do there?' My reply was to meet people/friends through COOKING CLASSES, art classes (I oil paint) and whatever. And so your business opened and here I am ....meeting people through the cooking classes. I have actually met 2 very good friends now because your classes".

A very special and memorable night."

More Praise for Our Kids Summer Cooking Camps

"We can't hear enough from our daughter Cassidy on just how much fun she had...thank you all!"
- Leanette

"Dear Jane, Jeanette, and Andie - I just wanted to thank you all once again for the most fantastic camp experience my daughter, Gabrielle, has ever had. It was well worth the price. She came home every night so excited about everything she learned that day, geography, history, and stories and customs, from each country they "visited". Her palette has expanded as she tried all types of foods and seasonings she had not tried before. Thank you for the extra bonus of manners, table setting, and etiquette. The party, the food, the decorations, the ceremony was such an extra added bonus. All the children seemed to leave today with such individual, incredible experiences. We will most certainly be back!"
