Five seats left as of Monday, July 20 at 5:00pm. Don't miss out on your share of grilled beef tenderloin, grilled catfish, grilled summer snap pea packets and grilled peach with fresh raspberry parfait!

Join me, MeetUp members and other customer/students (up to 12 people) in an exciting social evening of hands-on food preparation, learning about food and then, finally eating food around 9:00pm.


Our Chef, Dave Wescott will guide us and do the more complicated tasks while explaining the "whys" and "what fors" of cooking. We sit on high stools around a kitchen workstation and help measure, peel, chop and stir items. An overhead display mirror allows us to view the action from many angles. (and enjoy the smells) We wear latex gloves while helping, the ingredients are fresh & healthy looking and the environment is clean.

We all eat at a near by table setting at 9:00pm and go home with recipe cards, maybe leftover food and the warm feeling that we actually helped make our supper while having fun!

I saved all my past recipe cards in a colorful 3-ringed binder, ask me about it

How to sign up: Two hours of hands-on instruction and the meal and recipe cards cost $20.00 each person. Simply, fill out the form on the back inside cover of the "Culinary Workshop" brochure available at the customer service desk at the front of the store.

Who attended?

  • 2 attendees
    •  Chef Monica Duncan and her Brother-in-Law George who is the Grill Chef at Deltas in New Brunswick, NJ lead us through the preparation of our meal. I sprinkled freshly grounded Horseradish and other spices over Golden Potatoes that were steamed and halved. Others prepared the spices for the catfish and got all the vegetables like Snap Pea Packets and fresh corn sliced off the cob, ready to be placed in a foil packet. A group of us went with George to one of the grills in the back of the store that is normally used for preparation of food sold in the store. He showed us how to test if the Catfish was done by pressing on the flesh then noting if it sprung back. Chef Monica then plated and dressed up the meal and side dishes and we all ate together at a near by table. While eating, Chef Monica made the dessert, grilled Peaches and ice cream on a portable grill just in time for the end of our meal. She also had some family stories and homey sayings. I enjoyed the evening
