Berlin Cooking Club

It was a delicious evening, yummy food and a nice after show party:

Happy New Year to all of you, and I hope you had a relaxing holiday season.

It is time to plan the first cook-up in 2012. Due to the fact that we haven't found an alternative we will meet again in the Dairy.

Here are the details for the January cook-up. Please add a comment below about if you'd like to cook or just be a guest.  

Date: Saturday 21 January

Time: cooks arrive @ 17:00 and guests arrive at 19:30

Theme: Scandinavian food

It is almost two weeks ago that the two BCC masterminds Mel and Kelsie left Berlin, and we have to keep their spirit alive.

This is the announcement that there will be a cook-up in January. Theme, date and place is not yet confirmed. I would like to make it up to you. Last or second last weekend in January? Saturday 21.1. or 28.1.2012?

The other big question is WHERE? Any suggestions yet? I will ask some cooking friends if they have any idea. Please do so as well.

What's the theme for the January cook-up?

We will clarify this question hopefully within the next weeks. Love to hear from you.

Cheers

Stefan

Thanks to everyone that came to cook and eat.
