December Classes
An International Holiday Brunch
Saturday, December 2, 2-4 PM
taught by Ravi Phull
What could sound more appealing on these crisp, chilly mornings, than
sharing an International Brunch with family and friends? Our first stop is
India for spicy, eggnog bread (think of French Toast laced with aromatic
spices), topped with a salsa-like sauce. Next stop is Britain for
Toad-in-the-Hole (sausages baked in a batter), slathered with hot, onion
gravy. Finally, across the Channel to France for light, fluffy crepes, eaten
traditionally with sugar and lemon juice or whatever takes your fancy. So
grab your passport and hop on board!
$15 per person, $13 for co-op members & seniors.

holidays. As if that isn't enough Mari will also make festive and tasty
Cranberry and Pistachio Holiday Biscotti.
