Really Nice! · May 15, 2003

We still have not confirmed a date yet. I have yet to hear back from William. I will give him a ring today and find out.

Add me to your list, please. :smile:

Personally, I'd like to know how to properly season food.

Depending on the date, my friend from the bbq tasting will come too. My hubby will probably want to come too.

Mr. Toast · May 15, 2003

And DOD (depending on date) Ms Toast may want to come along.

Do you have a date, a trip to Seattle would be nice.

Schielke · May 20, 2003

Ok Everybody,

I spoke with Chef William at Mistral the other day and we settled on the details for the class.

Here is the skinny:

Date: Saturday June 14th

Time: ~ 10:00 a.m.

Topic: We will take a trip down to the Market and shop for the best looking ingredients. After this, we will return to Mistral and cook.

Food Generally a three course lunch is provided with the class, this is the food that was cooked during the class. Wine is available at an extra cost.

Equipment Chef William would like to involve the class in a bit of knife skill work, so please bring a sharp chef's knife. I am sure some of us have more than one, so we can probably work it out if somebody is short.

Cost: $50 per person Note: This will be due at time of reservation. Unfourtanetly Chef William has been burnt in the past for these kind of classes. :sad:

Who: Open for everybody, but the class size is limited to 10 people due to size constraints. Chef William has 9 spots open at the time of this posting (I got one!) :smile: and he will take reservations by phone until they are filled. For the sake of others interested, please post here if you have secured a spot so we know when the class is full.

Mistral Info:

113 Blanchard St

Seattle, Wa 98121

206-770-7799

Please let me know if you have any questions about the class.

Personally I can't wait!!!!! :wub: :wub: :wub: :smile:

Thanks Ben for setting this up, Batgrrrl and I are all signed up! I can't wait to show off my new 10" chef's knife, it's pimp. :cool:

Yes, thanks Ben--we know it's been a bit of a task getting this all pinned down, and we appreciate it! :wub:

I am at your service.

:cool: :smile:

col klink · May 20, 2003

I am at your service.

Really? Cool, my house needs painting. :smile:

mamster · May 20, 2003

I'm going to be at my brother's music school graduation, so you will not have the opportunity to see my mad knife skillz, but go all Iron Chef on my behalf.

nightscotsman · May 21, 2003

I'm in. :cool:

Thanks Schielke!!

LEdlund · May 21, 2003

Darn, I'll be in Vancouver that weekend! Luckily I'll be seeing Daniel Lanois in concert and eating at Vij's so I won't feel so bad about missing the class........

scrat68 · May 21, 2003

Tighe and I are in - Yipee!!!!

Schielke · May 25, 2003

Ok, looks like there are a couple of spots left open.

Any more takers?

Ben

mb7o · May 25, 2003

Sounds cool to me... I may drag a few friends along too, how many spots are open?

MsRamsey · May 27, 2003

Ok, looks like there are a couple of spots left open.
Any more takers?
Ben

I left them a message on Thursday but have not gotten a call back as of Tuesday. I hope I'm on their list.

Schielke · May 27, 2003

Try them again one more time. They were probably pretty busy this weekend and you might have gotten lost in the shuffle.

mb70, I think that there are 3 spots left as of now (with Ms Ramsey included), but give them a call to find out.

Ben

Mr. Toast · May 27, 2003

I called about a dozen times last week, hoping to get through to an actual person instead of a machine. I never did succeed.

Mr. Toast · May 27, 2003

Update: I just called, and got through. I got the last spot - except that he said a couple people who called and left messages still can get in.

MsRamsey · May 27, 2003

I'm in! Hurray!

Schielke · May 27, 2003

Mmmm Toast.

:smile:

mb7o · May 28, 2003

Damn you all.

I mean, dammit, I have to stop procrastinating about everything.

Let the rest of us know how it goes.

col klink · May 28, 2003

You bet, there might even be some pictures of me cutting off fingers. :shock:

SparrowsFall · May 29, 2003

I'm in! Left a message last week including my CC#, didn't get a call back. Left another message three days later, asking for confirmation callback. Got one that day.

If he's been screwed on getting people signed up and paid for these things in the past, maybe his staff's poor followup has something to do with it....?

Might pass on a word to the wise.
