David Mincey

Victoria, BC – A series of 9 classes, for the Advanced Home Chef, that can be taken individually or as a series.  These classes would be best for those who have taken some cooking classes or have been cooking for a while and want to improve their technique.  They would also appeal to those who just want to broaden their knowledge of food, food history and culinary technique.

The classes will be offered in a “freestyle” format without recipes or a set plan for the evening.  Chef David will allow for and encourage copious note taking and offer follows up consultations via phone and e-mail, to all students. We do usually serve food for everyone to eat, but not always.  (Please see individual class description as to which classes will not offer food).   It will be possible to make adjustments for some allergies; but the classes are not vegetarian or gluten-free. The classes are demonstration; however interaction and participation, is encouraged.

For those wishing to take the entire series, we will be offering a gift of one Miyabi Artisan knife (your choice of an 8″ Chef knife or a 7″ Santoku – retail value of $220), along with a gift basket of three Artisanal chocolate bars and three jars of Preservation Food’s canning.  As well, upon finishing the series, you will receive a certificate of completion.
