Published February 22, 2012Our cooking classes have been going really well, and we would particularly like to mention Chef Ken Iaci’s class tonight. In a short 2.5 hour, Chef Ken cooked a total of 9 fabulous dishes! Everyone enjoyed themselves and one lucky winner took home a gift bag full of Galloway’s goodies. We will be posting recipes from all the cooking classes as we receive them from the chefs.
