Have you ever watch a romantic movie where a couple was celebrating their love for each other while cooking together - He was cutting the veggies, she was pulling a roast out of the oven - Did you think "Ha! Only in the movies," and then ordered take-out Chinese? Thanks to a clever group of people, you and your Sweetheart can now act like you live in the movies! Introducing:Kitchen in the Market!
Located in the hip Midtown Global Market in Minneapolis, the space has something for everyone - It is an incredible kitchen space for Professional caterers, producers & manufacturers, mobile food trucks, and others who need licensed space to create their culinary delights. It is also a place to get cooking classes by professional Chefs!
The new "Cooking the Market" classes (www.bookwhen.com/kitm) * These are particularly fabulous for couples as a date night* They are also for showers/bachelorette parties(you can book a private class on a date of your choice for 12-20 people).
The Kitchen in the Market is having a fabulous Grand opening this Friday, February 25, 6-8 p.m. If you are interested in learning more about the space, signing up for some classes, or just need some bubbly, rsvp through their facebook page. To see the full event details, & rsvp, follow this link:
I had the pleasure of interviewing Tracy Morgan of KITM:
Tracy: KITM's specialty is giving home cooks a peek into the world of professional chefs. Not only can you watch chefs at work, cook in our kitchen (during a hands-on class), but you can also take home chef-created and -inspired products: Nummy foods, kitchen goods and cookbooks. Personally, my specialty is entertaining - I love throwing a kick ass party where everyone has a great time, eats well and enjoys each others' company.
S&C: What brought you into the wedding/love/couples side of business and how long have you been doing it?
Tracy: Kitchen in the Market is a shared commercial kitchen space which allows caterers and other food businesses to share their "home kitchen" space. We get to count on many great caterers who do weddings and private events, and other food businesses that create wedding favors (Bistro Meringues, as an example) as our business partners. KITM has been a shared kitchen for almost 3 years, but we've just expanded this year into a brand new kitchen, adding room for retail and a cooking school. And P.S. We have some great cooking classes that can be customized as showers and bachelorette parties too!
S&C: What advice do you have for couples?
Tracy: By all means, cook together. To me, there's nothing sexier than a man who knows his way around a kitchen! Crack open a bottle of wine, put on some swanky music, and do the cooking together. If you don't feel confident in the kitchen, take a class and experiment. Try something new. Food can be such a great catalyst in a happy relationship.
- I couldn't have said it better myself, let's eat!
