Description

After spending nearly 40 years in The Lone Star State, this Chef and Cookbook Author certainly influenced the way Texans ate and entertained and rightfully earned the title of Grand Dame of Texas Cookery. You'll learn a little about our culinary history and influences in this one hour, lunch-time class as you enjoy some of the dishes that Ms. Corbitt became famous for.

For ages 18 & up. Alcoholic beverages will not be served in this class.
