The first class of the cooking series will bring you all the way to the streets of the Czech Republic. All attendees will learn about and prepare two delicious hot sandwiches: a fried cheese sandwich and a chicken schnitzel sandwich. Both will be served with homemade tartar sauce.
Note: This meal is suitable for vegetarians too – instead of schnitzel, you will prepare another kind of fried cheese.
