Metro Cooking DC - Cooking classes, Cooking stages and more all under one roof!

The work week is coming to a close and the start of the weekend is ramping up. I'm looking forward to attend the Metro Cooking DC, The Metropolitan Cooking and Entertaining Show doors open at 10am on 8 November at the Washington Convention Center. 

This two day event appears to have something for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining:

• Book signings 
• Cooking classes offered by L'Academie de Cuisine
• Presentations by local chef favorites such as  Chef Cathal Armstrong from Restaurant Eve, Chef Marjorie Meek-Bradley from Ripple/Roofers Union , Chef Vikram Sunderam from Rasika, and Chef Tim Ma from Maple Avenue Restaurant/Water and Wall, and others on the James Beard Foundation Cooking stage
• A beer, wine and spirits garden
• Tasting and entertaining workshops
• Opportunities to meet the event headliners, Bobby Flay and Guy Fieri

I've begun to make a list of the stations and areas I want to visit. Before I explore the exhibit floor I will be a volunteer assistant in a L'Academie de Cuisine cooking class.  If you see me, please say hello. See you on the exhibit floor!


Be well,
