Stories From Our Kitchen
Hear how our students have expanded their cooking skills and cultural appreciation
Before joining ForestChairHarbor, I felt overwhelmed by anything beyond simple Indian dishes. Today I confidently cook Thai curries, craft fresh pasta from scratch, and try Japanese techniques. The teachers made each cuisine feel approachable and tied to its cultural roots.
