I took Chef Jean Pierre's "Classic Chicken Recipes" class this week and, as always, had a spectacular time. The recipes for "the best ever Chicken Fricassee" and Chicken Paprikash were scrumptious and I look forward to trying them at home. When preparing the Chicken Piccata recipe, Chef Jean Pierre was inspired to change things up a bit with delicious results. He promise to send the revised recipe to the class which he has done. Chef exceeded our expectations by throwing in a dessert; it was Molten Chocolate Cake which was perfection. He emailed us that recipe as well. It's always a fun, happy time with Chef Jean Pierre, Bradley and LeAnn and I can't wait to go back!

The knife skills class was one of the best classes I have taken.....no only was it informative and fun....the hands on experience makes it perfect.....if you are not chopping quit right your will be corrected and you will leave the class with the knowledge of knowing exactly what to do. You will learn how to make chopping and cutting easy, but also how to do things correctly and safely....I have many great knives at home and learned how to take great care of them.....thank you.....I can't wait to take another class.....and by the way the lunch was fabulous....

My children gave me the first two classes as a birthday gift. My husband & I used the gift certificate for the Couples Dinner on October 24, and Paella Night on October 30. We had a WONDERFUL time at both events. Chef Jean-Pierre is hilarious, entertaining, as well as a fabulous chef. His passion for cooking is infectious. I love to cook, and have been doing it for 50 years, but I learned so many tips from him in just those two classes! We are definitely returning! In fact, we have already reserved for Valentine's Day weekend, and are trying to choose a class for our anniversary in December. Just finished making his homemade mayonnaise, and it came out perfect, just like his!

Champion Chef JP and company outdid themselves with a spectacular menu that blossomed with flavors from the deep blue sea before our eyes.

Pass The Butter . .. Please.

This is interesting . .. .

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.

It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow colouring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavourings....

DO YOU KNOW.. The difference between margarine and butter?

Read on to the end...gets very interesting!

Both have the same amount of calories.


Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams; compared to 5 grams for margarine.

Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.


Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.


Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few and only because they are added!

Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavours of other foods.

Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years.

And now, for Margarine..

Very High in Trans fatty acids.

Triples risk of coronary heart disease ...

Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)

Increases the risk of cancers up to five times..

Lowers quality of breast milk

Decreases immune response.

Decreases insulin response.

And here's the most disturbing fact... HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING!

Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC... and shares 27 ingredients withPAINT

These facts alone were enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance).


Open a tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will notice a couple of things:

* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something)

* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value ; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic . Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

Share This With Your Friends.....(If you want to butter them up')!

Chinese Proverb:

When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it
with others.
Pass the BUTTER PLEASE

I've been coming to Chef Jean-Pierre for at least 10 years now. His classes are not only educational but fun as well. I've brought so many friends and family visiting from out of town to see him. Not only does Chef prepare a beautiful meal, he is so entertaining! You won't be disappointed!!!!!!

Uh,oh; I may have made a mistake. I thought the class
before last was the best ever. No, last week's Casual Dinner Party was the best ever.

Oh, all your classes are the best ever.

What a great time my friends and I have attending
your classes.....the best ever, ever. And I can't
wait to attend the best ever again soon.

My daughter and I attended the dessert section of Cooking 101 to celebrate her graduation. I wish I lived nearby, so I could take other classes. I'm an experienced cook and baker, and I still learned new things. Chef JP is so knowledgeable and a lot of fun. It's obvious that he enjoys what he's doing.

To the chef and staff, I am really enjoying the classes. I made the bechamel sauce and it was more than wonderful..I watched how you did the chicken tenderloin and it was outstanding I have never been able to cook it thru without drying it out..Doing it your way did the trick.I took some of the bechamel and did a mornay sauce with mozzarella and fresh grated Parmesan cheese. Fantastic. Thank you so much Rick

What you don’t know is that you saved my marriage and my life. A few years ago the reason I started taking your class is because my husband of 10 years at the time told me he wanted a divorce. I was devastated and didn’t know what I was going to do with my life as I was know as John’s wife. Your class gave me an interest and confidence in myself and cooking. I learned that I was able to do something by myself for myself and enjoy myself. The stronger I got and the more I liked myself I was able to work on my relationship with John and I am happy to say we will be celebrating our 19th Anniversary in November.

I never thanked you for what you did for me so from the bottom of my heart
THANK YOU!

My husband and I signed up for the Valentine’s couples class and to share he was a little apprehensive to attend. I had attended a class years ago when they had a location in Plantation and still use some of the recipes. My husband, who does love to cook, left the class saying, “It was an evening like no other, Chef Pierre was truly entertaining not only as a chef but as a wonderful story teller, comedian and the food we ate was mouth watering delicious and with his ease in sharing, as we watched him prepare we believe we could tackle for our own guests!” Even if you do not cook attending a couples evening at Jean-Pierre’s is a must for everyone! This was the first couples night, please consider not waiting until next Valentine’s Day – we would love to have another Saturday evening event that we can share with you & we would like to bring our friends with us!

Four of us attended the Fun Food For Friends class last night and of course, the food was absolutely delicious. We had no idea though, that Chef Jean Pierre would keep us laughing all night long! What a joy to be in the presence of someone who is so passionate, knowledgeable, fun, and generous with his talent. You can't attend his class and not fall in love with him. His joy is contagious. We learned so much and we will definitely be back! Thank you Chef Jean Pierre and thanks to Jonathan and Guillermo as well, for their preparation and hospitality.

We had a great time last night with the class!!!! Chef was joking that he hoped nobody had a babysitter waiting at home, becuase he didn't know how long we'd be there - well, my husband and I did. We got home in plenty of time for the sitter, who by the way cleaned my whole kitchen while I was gone!!! The food at the class was, and I quote, "phenomenal"!! (overheard by many in the class!) Thank you very much for a great night of food, fun, and lots of laughs!

Hi Folks, The holiday cookies cooking class was superb!! We learned three new recipes, plus variations, we sampled some great desserts and best of all, we made new friends.

The atmosphere was warm and congenial. Each cooking station was perfectly set up and we all felt like TV chefs. We didn't even have to clean up. The final touch, some cheese and crackers, was also most appreciated.

All in all it was a super day and perhaps I'll even make some of the recipes at home!! (We all enjoyed the goodies I brought home that night.)

Many thanks for a memorable Saturday.

Hey there,

The class as always is a blast, I have not attended one for quite awhile and it really seems like there is strong following. Someone who was sitting next to me commented that she tried to register for another class it was full. That is pretty neat.

I do appreciate the tips on preparation during the class, I tried to write some down however I missed several, maybe add a page to the recipes labeled " Tips" one I need is when using boxed broth you add tomato paste and something.. I forget. I cannot write fast enough. Also, can I make the stuffing ahead and do I cook it then freeze it or freeze and then cook it??

I would like to order that great gravy, if it was said I missed it, how can I order it? And, What hours are you open? I briefly walked by the tools of the trade area and it looks interesting.

I did get a lot from the class, fun being one,I will plan on taking others, one being the Left Bank Favorites. I still have some of the old mailers around with some of the old recipes. I do plan on trying some of the recipes from this class this holiday.

Thank you and enjoy a great holiday.

Hi Chef,

Just wanted to let you know that I thoroughly enjoyed cooking 101! You are a phenomenal teacher and chef extraodinaire! What impressed me most was your ability to teach beginning students like myself the basics of cooking in just 5 sessions. All of the information is very practical and can be applied to everyday cooking immediately. You make cooking fun and I look forward to cooking 201 next year! See you next week in your Thanksgiving class.

Thanks again and best wishes,

Dear Chef Jean-Pierre,
Hello, I'm one of your old cooking class students from over 7 years ago. I was thinking about you a lot this summer after I took my 3 kids to see the movie Ratatouille.
I just wanted to let you know what a huge impact you've had in my interest in cooking. I still remember all your great cooking "tips" & will never forget the Ratatouille you made us! I had never heard of ratatouille & loved your version. And when the movie came out.......it brought me back to Ft. Lauderdale in your awesome cooking class.
We've since moved to San Diego & still have not found cooking classes that match yours!
Thanks again for your inspiration & encouragement to be a good cook. I learned to have fun while cooking.........and I think your message in class was similar to the movie, "Anyone Can Cook".
By the way, I cannot find your recipe for Ratatouille. I turned my house upside-down searching. Any chance you can email it to me??
=)

I thought I was a good cook before taking Cooking 101. Most of my dishes revolved around grilled items with a Caribbean type influence. After taking 101 and learning some real basic but powerful techniques my repertoire has expanded dramatically to the delight of my dinner guests. The sauces I learned to prepare are truly spectacular and the dessert class really added some new flair to dinners--especially the chocolate fondants!!
I would say that I am a much better cook, I am quicker and understand what and why I am doing things to achieve a great result. I would reccommend Cooking 101 to all!

I have been enjoying JP's classes since he was teaching at the Left Bank Restaurant. I think the best part of learning from him is that he makes everything look so easy, AND IT IS! I especially like the tips that he gives you that you won't find in a cookbook. JP is so entertaining and makes the class fun.

We always wind up laughing and most of all enjoying his wonderful food! I have made many of the items he has taught for family and friends and they all rave about them!

Everyone should go to at least 1 class....if not more.

This is one of the most enjoyable ways to spend an evening with girlfriends or that special someone. It is a very relaxed, friendly, and fun way to learn about the joys of cooking. Whenever I have a new friend in town I always reserve an evening for us at the cooking school. It has created wonderful memories of their trip to Florida. Chef Jean-Pierre is wonderful and warm and no matter who is cooking for you, your experience with be worthwhile and memorable.
Thank you and Cheers!!
