Williams-Sonoma Cooking Class

This is the best WS in the city. For all your foodies out there, you must come to the classes! The classes are free and they help you learn about how to use their products! AND I guess its time to reveal my secret. During alot of chef events where you have to pay $$$$ to get into the tents WS has free demos here. Yes, FREE demos by chefs like Alice Water, Dominique Crenn and Hubert Keller (I’m not sure if Alice or Dom has come but you get the idea. Hubert has and a few others I can’t recall). There is a sign in sheet to make sure it doesnt get crowded but you should keep an eye out for these events.

Attention all foodies: Williams Sonoma is way cooler than you think. it is.
If you’re like me, you probably associate Williams Sonoma with 2 things: pretty cookware and kitchen gadgets you’re tempted to purchase despite being totally unnecessary. But recently, the Union Square location has started a marketing program that goes beyond the home and connects local foodies to local food.
How? By offering free cooking demonstrations from some of the city’s best local chefs, as well as special classes that give you one-​on-​one interaction with the best of SF’s artisan food vendors (i.e. Blue Bottle Coffee, Recchiuti Chocolates)
They’re also offering free classes on cooking technique, and affordable cooking classes. I’ve written about it for Examiner, which gives all the details about what you can expect, and the schedule of classes. You can read that by following the link in my profile.

This place is awesome, but I have to say that Chef Matt is amazing. His food is beyond great and his classes are amazing. He knows cooking and he shares it with his classes. More people need ro know about him, a great chef and down to earth and easy to talk to.
