SUMMARY:CHINESE COOKERY
DESCRIPTION:What makes Szechuan/Sichuan cuisine so special?

Each student will have their own work station\, equipment and ingredients to work with. \nWHERE: Blackfriars Cookery School \nTIMES: 9.30am to 4.30pm \nCOST: £175 per person which includes refreshments throughout the day\, a communal lunch with wine\, regional beverage and coffee in the Cookery School\, apron and recipes to take home.
