[Highland Park] Fw: HOLIDAY OFFERINGS & NEW CLASSES FROM CHOP, WOK & TALK!
Greetings! I wanted to let everyone know that the class schedules are on the website from now until the end of March. Since I won't be away for the holidays we have added several new holiday-type classes as well as an extensive amount of time during the season for private parties. It's a good way to entertain with no work and especially no clean-up! Please check out www.chopwoktalk.com<http://www.chopwoktalk.com/> for the 2013 classes to include Superbowl Favorites, Chinese New Year Class, Valentine Dinner for Two, Easter in Italy class, and Easter Brunch as well as the regular classes. We also added a Creole/Cajun and German class for 2013 to our list of ethnic foods.
