This sounds brilliant, but can you tell me if it includes vegetarian food? I imagine the Southern Indian one will, but I don't know about tapas.

rosa, we always do a vegetarian/vegan option. We are making some stuffed peppers, a couple of salads, spanish omlette and pisto manchego which is a vegetable dip as well as some meat and fish options at the next cook along.

Advanced Cook Along
Tuesday, March 1 • 6:00pm - 8:00pm
£4
Do you want to learn new techniques that will elevate your cooking to a higher standard? The advanced cook alongs are a chance for you to learn the secrets behind some of the more complex dishes you might only get to try if you go to a good restaurant. At the first session we will be looking at pastry. In particular, choux, filo and short crust as we teach you full proof ways to make these pastries and interesting things to do with them. The 2 hour sessions will finish with you getting to eat all of the food that we prepare in the session and also take away the recipes of everything we make.

The menu for the first advanced cook along is;-
Seafood spring roll with guacamole and a soy dipping sauce
Courgette and aubergine tart, with basil and parmesan.
Choux buns with an orange cream, mint crème anglais and chocolate

This sounds absolutely brilliant, exactly the sort of thing I'd like to do, but unfortunately I'm working late that night...I'm gutted, I've been meaning to get round to learning how to do different sorts of pastry for ages! I'm sure I'll be at any future ones though, keep us posted.

Just wanted to say that I went to this on Thursday and it was great fun, highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn a bit more about cooking different things or just likes cooking and meeting new people. I didn't actually learn anything I didn't know already as I do quite a lot of cooking, but I had a really good time and will definitely be going again!
