“I recently had the pleasure of taking an
“Appetizer Class” from Eileen Sherman. The
entire session exceeded my expectations. The
class was very organized and we all thought it
was great that we participated in making each
one of the 6 delicious appetizers from start to
finish. We all had different levels of cooking
expertise and Eileen gave each one of us concise
and helpful instructions and we all learned new
techniques to prepare, serve and present the
food. We were all pleased that we came away
with 6 new delicious recipes that we could not
wait to make again! It was such a fun day and
I am looking forward to taking another class!”
