Hey everyone,

Here’s something else that I thought would be fun to do if anyone has the time. It’s a very small class. Hopefully there are still openings and it is tomorrow night, hurry if you want to take the class.

Also, just a question for you. How much would you be willing to pay for a Korean cooking class tht would teach you how to make:

an appetizer such as pajon,
a couple Korean side dishes
A main entree like daktoritang or galbijjim
dessert
drink?
