Yes, I must agree the class went very well (I was the sous). All the dishes prepared to me seemed to build up and correspond with the theme of Vanilla. The recipes weren't as hard to prepare and were pretty easy, all that was required was two burners, a blender, large saute pan with cover and a couple of sauce pans, and other basic things like a whisk etc. The results had an awesome taste and appearance as you can see by the pictures gfon1 posted. Some of dishes weren't as sweet as many may believe vanilla to be. They also like gfon1 said weren't "too vanilla" as you might expect it to be. The salmon, asparagus dish, and salad were savory and the others were mildly sweet. They intermingled with both the sweet and savory categories. The salad was without a doubt awesome with the addition of the 99% chocolate and strawberries as like gfon1 said it was the rave of those that attended. My personal favorite were the salmon, melon soup, and the dessert of caramelized pears and sweet rice of course.
