Parties That Cook Prepares for Another Great Mothers Day Brunch Cooking Class

Parties That Cook has been hosting Mothers Day brunch cooking classes in San Francisco for as long as I can remember.. or maybe more like 2010. Still, we have about 14 years of hands-on cooking party experience to bring to the table literally. If youre on the fence about what to do with your Mom this Mothers Day, let this sample itinerary and visual stroll down memory lane help you decide on a cooking class! You can still join Parties That Cook for Mothers Day brunch cooking class in San Francisco, or look for a similar option in a city near you.

Mothers Day Sample Itinerary:

10:30am Arrive at the beautiful Ferry Building on the (hopefully) sunny Embarcadero. Look for the Parties That Cook sign, prepped cooking stations, and smiling PTC staff in chefs coats or purple aprons. Check in, fill out a fun name-tag and grab a white apron.

10:40am Looking for something to sip on? Grab a cup of OJ or coffee while you chat with the other guests. Expect to see new Moms, seasoned Moms, Moms with their husbands, Moms with grown children, groups of Mom friends, and more. Its like a Mommapalooza!

10:50am Is your stomach starting to rumbling? Head over to one of the antipasti platters floating around. Nosh on the delicious assortment of cheese, crackers, and maybe some other fun surprises. Problem solved. Hunger vanquished.

11:00am Notice your lead chef calling everyone together? Gather round one of the cooking stations prepped for successful recipe execution. If youre lucky, Heather will be the chef leading guests through a few safety tips like how not to pass a knife to your new friends. Hint: do NOT throw. Heather, I mean your lead chef, will also go over a number of useful tips & tricks to help you conquer the mornings recipes. Pay attention! Or just ask our helpful chefs to clarify later. They dont bite.

11:30am Break into groups to tackle a couple recipes on the menu. Skip the flashbacks of middle school kickball team selection. You will not be separated from your Mom, fellow mom-friends, neighbor, or anyone you else came with.

11:35am Steal away to grab another drink, this time a soda. Wash your hands. Yes, both of them!And get to cooking!

11:40am Cook. Cook. Cook. Cook.

12:15pm Remember you arent the only team cooking! Walk around and check out what other groups have going on. Dont worry, youll be able to taste their yummy creations, too. Cook more.

12:30pm Ding! Your dishes are ready, and its time to feast. This years menu includes Bacon Wrapped Apricots with Blue Cheese (a favorite), Zucchini Pancakes with Smoked Trout (YUM.), Chorizo and Potato Frittatta Bites (your new go-to brunch item), Crostini of Artichoke (youll want this in your party dish arsenal), and Brioche Bread Pudding (DECADENT!! must be said in Oprah voice). My mouth is watering already!

1:30pm We know youre full. Savor any remaining morsels you can before heading out to enjoy the rest of the gorgeous day with Mom. Or, you know, take a nap.. Either way, the PTC team will take care of any and all clean up in true PTC fashion.

All Day: Have a fabulous Mothers Day! Spend time with loved ones, and maybe a few new friends.
