What is the difference between a "Hands-On" and "Demo" class?
In a Hands-On, YOU will be the chef!  Every participant will be given a copy of the recipes to be prepared during that class.  Chef Dennis will guide you through the process of preparing this meal.  You will learn the tricks of the trade that professional chefs use in restaurants.  The techniques learned will help you with your future culinary creations and make you feel more comfortable in the kitchen!

A Demonstration Class, is held in a casual and relaxed environment.  Each participant will be given a copy of the recipes used for that particular class and Chef Dennis will demonstrate how each dish is prepared.  In this setting, you will be able to ask Chef Dennis any questions regarding the preparation of the dishes and he will demonstrate the each technique needed when making the recipes yourself.   Every participant will have the opportunity to sample each dish that has been prepared.
