From origins to pairings, sourcing, equipment and preparation, there's a lot to cover when it comes to food education. Fortunately for coffee lovers, craft beer enthusiasts, health food nuts and those who love to support community food projects, there are tons of workshops and classes to satisfy an insatiable hunger to know, do and taste more.
Many of these informative sessions on food and beverage reject the traditional classroom setting and instead opt for experiential learning in unconventional settings or formats. A few examples of this include wine tours and tastings by bicycle, craft beer-centric cruises and cooking classes for both cat owners and their furry feline friends.
As well as being entertaining and informative on the spot, participants are left with skills and knowledge that can be taken away to improve the enjoyment of their favorite food and drinks.
