But Can She Cook?

Sure you could go by yourself, but it’s more fun with a friend. First watch a professional chef make a mouth-watering handmade pizza, a crème brulee or crispy tofu with curry sauce, then give it a try. After you’ve learned how to be the gourmet cook that you always wanted to be, you’ll need to go to the Mountain View Farmer’s Market.

Now you’re ready to browse through the biggest selection of cookbooks this side of the Mississippi. BookBuyers Used Books is the place to go. They have vintage cookbooks dating back to the 1960s. Yummy… find old recipes that would make even your Great Aunt Velma proud.
