TOP News: Habitat Launches Monthly Cooking Classes

 

If you recall, we love Habitat.  
 

Happily, the "internationally inspired, locally unique" eatery located in the Fairmont Pittsburgh Hotel  in Pittsburgh's thriving cultural district had some recent and exciting news to share with the readers of TOP!  Following the success of their first-ever cooking class, Executive Chef Andrew Morrison has announced the schedule for a new monthly cooking class series at the downtown restaurant.  Classes will take place one Saturday every month from 1:00-3:00 p.m. and cover a variety of topics:

                        Saturday, March 31      Easter Sweets
                                                               with Pastry Chef James Wroblewski
                        Saturday, May 5           Cinco de Mayo: Tacos & Margaritas
                                                               with Chefs Luis Jimenez & Agustin Oliva
                        Saturday, June 2          Summer Cocktails at Andys
                                                              and the debut of Andys’ new summer cocktail menu!
                        Saturday, July 7           Secrets of BBQ & Summer Grilling
                                                              with Chefs Paula Smagacz & Agustin Oliva

I will definitely be taking these guys up on one of these classes... and they've made me pretty hungry as well.  Time to head back for lunch or dinner again soon, I'd say...
