    Review of Evening & week end Diploma Course, April 20, 2009

    Robert and I collaborated on a book project several years ago and we've kept in good contact over the years. That being said, I didn't have the pleasure of experiencing one of his cooking classes until recently. I took the six-week Thursday evening class, where we prepared a three to four-course meal, including several appetizers, various salads, a main course, and dessert - all paired with wine.

    The thought of learning 'how to cook properly' always seemed daunting to me. I do know how to prepare the basics, but I never had a clear understanding as to how season dishes properly, what to best serve with what, nor a good understanding what happens to the texture and flavor of food as it's being cooked. Preparing meals at home has always been about basic sustenance for me, but after this class I've gained a new outlook on cooking which involves proper seasoning, finding flavors, the magic of a good dessert, and a better understanding of wine.

    With Robert, cooking is not only about the craft, but also about the history and culture behind French and Italian food. Robert is a very open and sincere teacher and his classed are filled with anecdotes and his own personal experiences. I found this to be a magnificent combination in this condensed and intense evening class. Even for someone like myself who isn't necessarily pursuing a career in cooking, but who certainly enjoys eating great meals.
