Chef Marc Miron teaches about sauces, Asian cuisine and wine-pairing this coming month. Why not join us?

This coming month, we are presenting some of our most popular cooking classes. On Wednesdays, we will be learning all about sauces. Learn to make and use mother sauces, veal and chicken stock, red wine sauce, béchamel, mornay and hollandaise.

On Fridays (except October 28 which is reserved for a wine-pairing class--more below), we will take an Asian adventure with Wonton Soup, Cantonese Lemon Chicken and Kue Labu (Indonesian pumpkin custard).

We are also continuing our wildly popular Lunch 'n Learn series on Tuesdays at noon.

Classes for wine lovers

Ever wished you knew more about how to pick the best wine to go with your meal? On October 28, we are offering a wine-pairing class to help you do just that, with a focus on beef dishes. At each class, you'll be able to visit four stations where you can watch (and taste!) different dishes that will be cooked, served and paired with an appropriate wine.

Download the schedule and details here. Spaces are limited so we encourage you to book early.

Enjoy a wide variety of beautiful French pastries including (from the top) buchette delice, lemon meringue tart, almond tart and rhubarb and ginger cake.

According to her book Savoring the Past: The French Kitchen and Table from 1300 to 1789, Barbara Ketcham Wheaton asserts that the early 18th century was a turning point in the development of French desserts.

It was during that time that chefs of the day moved toward lighter dishes and more modest presentations of pies as individual pastries and turnovers. Those wondrous creations that would become known as French pastries were born! 

Cuisine & Passion's resident pastry chef, Melanie Sauvé, prepares a wide variety of these delectable treats. As well as those pictured here, there are also éclairs, baba au rhum, fruit tarts, crème caramel and cream puffs.  

Drop by today to try some for yourself. Guaranteed you'll leave with a smile on your face!

Thursdays it's international fare.

Introduced just last month, our new gourmet lunch-to-go seems to be catching on.

And no wonder. You get to feast on a beautiful house-made lunch plus a juice or bottled water for just 10 bucks.  

Healthy, fresh food prepared to go. Just the way you like it. And the only way we'll prepare it.

Here's the line-up: 

After you've cleaned your peppers (of any kind), slice them on your cutting board with the skin side down.

This give you better control, making it both easier and safer.
