Cooking Classes?

[Dinsdale45]

I happened to see that The Elephant Walk offers weekend cooking classes and I was wondering if any other restaurant in Greater Boston does this. I also tried searching for recreational cooking classes but I can't find much outside of the Cambridge Adult Ed Center. I was hoping to find some ethnic cooking classes at a local high school/college. Does anyone know of classes being taught, hopefully northwest of Boston/Cambridge?

EDIT: I suppose I should've posted this in a non-restaurant forum.

Myers and Chang offers a cooking class about once a month. For $50, you not only get the cooking class but they also provide you with a complimentary dim sum meal. I highly recommend it.

I took one of the Cambodian classes at Elephant Walk and it was wonderful. Very hands-on (we hand chopped over a pound of ginger) and a delicious group meal afterwards.

I took a cooking class a few years ago with Chef Gerard (Elephant Walk). it was very good. But, it was very little hands on cooking, more watching.
I have taken a couple of cooking classes in Helen Rennie's house and she is delightful.
Her kitchen was very tiny then, but she has since moved and I am told that her kitchen is very large.
I would love to take a Thai class myself, but haven't found one yet.

Good luck!

I took a class on baking brioche a couple years ago through one of Helen Rennie's colleagues. Highly recommended. Also just saw in the Improper that Dante is offering classes this spring and summer.

I took a french pastry class earlier this year through Helen's Kitchen, which I really enjoyed. It was a one night class held in the instructor's home.

Most of the voc-ed high schools offer cooking classes. Keefe Tech,(ktconed.org) assabet, Minutman, etc. Check with your local school. They usually have websites.
