- The date starts with a warm welcome at the cooking school in Ankara. Here you're introduced to your chef and class setting. As the class begins, you and your partner team up to create a delicious, heartwarming Turkish meal. The experience isn't just about cooking food. This is a time to bond as a couple, learn new skills, and share a unique, delectable experience. You're encouraged to interact with other couples, share your cooking tips, and try each other's creations.
- As the meal comes to life under your hands, you share jokes and laughter, maybe a smudged floury hand here and there, and savor each step of the cooking process. The class takes around 3 hours and you will be preparing a full menu including a traditional appetizer, entre and dessert. Home cooks of all levels will find the recipes accessible, with educators providing guidance and assistance for any necessary techniques.
- As you're waiting for your dishes to cook you can interact with the other participants, perhaps try your hand at a few dance steps of the traditional Turkish dances as the music plays, and just have fun. Itโs an evening that would lead to an amazing meal, a ton of laughs, and a unique experience that will deepen your bond as a couple.
Preparation steps:
- Before the class, ensure you have a pen and notepad to jot down key instructions, and a camera or smartphone for taking memorable photos. Dress in comfortable clothes and appropriate footwear for a cooking environment. Feel free to interact with the chef and ask any questions you may have about the recipes or ingredients.
- You might also want to study a bit about Turkish cuisine, so the class becomes even more informative and engaging. If your partner isn't familiar with Turkish cuisine, you can give them a little background about the rich heritage and flavors that they're about to experience, building up the excitement for the experience.
- As the class will take a few hours, you might want to have a light bite to eat before the class starts. This could be a good talking point and could break any nerves before the class begins.
