I have to cook with coworkers

How hard is it for the hipster place to provide a GF menu? Good grief.

Boo re the Celiac disease interfering with a good time!

I say "good time" only because I've done these cooking classes a few times, and it is a blast, particularly because we drank the whole duration.

Does you boss know you have celiac? That seems like something you should be exempt from.

But. To make you feel better: I have to swim with my coworkers on 7/9.

can you volunteer to cook the one item yourself to try to limit cross contamination?

win win!

We're having a team building event at a hipster cooking class place. We'll be split into teams to cook together. I have Celiac disease and won't want to touch half this stuff, nevermind the fact that I won't be able to eat it. (They did provide a menu, depending on cross contamination it sounds like I can have like one of the items.)


This sounds like hell.

Start emailing them pictures from my Glermy thread and tell everyone these are ideas you have for recipes. Maybe they'll cancel the whole thing.

Pretty sure glorp and glerm are GF... jus' sayin'.

Ok. If alcohol is provided, this may change my perspective.

I bet there will be wine at the very least!

I've done classes at Hipcooks and at Sur La Table.

We were liquored up at both, which, in hindsight, probably wasn't very safe.  LOL.

Maybe you'll just get to sit and drink wine and eat cheese while everybody else cooks. LOL.

Can I ask you an only slightly related question mp ?

If you cook for a large group, your guests, do you ever cook gluten items you do not eat? Why would you? But then again, if pasta is cheap, easy and a crowd pleaser maybe you'd serve it. Do you?
