“This was a lot of fun. I promised the people I mange at work that I'd make them Pastels if they hit target while I was away. Now I have to wow them. I'm confident I will. One complaint - at the end our hosts offered bags for taking away our pare tarts. But I'd already eaten all mine. They were too good.”
Meet at 6:30 pm on R. Bernardim Ribeiro for a hands-on Portuguese cooking class led by chefs such as Pedro, Carolina, or Giu. Prepare fish, meat, dessert, and traditional side dishes, taste local products, drink Portuguese wine, then sit down for the meal you helped make.
