Reviews
KDKA Channel 2 has featured Gaynor Grant of Gaynor’s School of Cooking (formerly Sweetwater Cooking), the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review has quoted Gaynor’s expertise, and one Yelper gives Gaynor’s School of Cooking five stars:
- My boyfriend bought me two classes at Gaynor's School of Cooking for my birthday and we had so much fun taking them together! We took a Taste of Moroccan and Taste of Greece class. The classes are hands on: you actually cook all of the items. This, for me, is the best way to learn and I feel that I did learn a lot at Gaynor's, including new recipes and new techniques. I also really had a lot of fun, mingling with the other students and the instructor and eating delicious food. I highly recommend this school and feel that it's the perfect gift! – M B., Yelp
Groupon Says
Don't Bother Cooking
Cooking your own food is by far the least practical approach to dealing with hunger. It's time consuming, it might make your clothes dirty, and without the Colonel's 11 secret herbs and spices, your food is guaranteed to taste like the air inside a tennis ball. Here are some superior methods for getting the nutrients you need:
Foraging: Food, unlike money or new organs, actually grows on trees! Fruits, vegetables, honey, and tuna can all be found growing naturally in our country's many public orchards. Mother Nature always provides for those who take good care of her, so as you shoelessly roam the land selling copies of your sequel to the Constitution, be sure to bury all your refuse as an offering of thanks to her.
Tame Your Hunger: "Hunger" is merely a feeling, not a medical state, that your body uses to tempt you into drinking that jar of honey-mustard sauce. Use meditation to control your hunger pangs. You'll eat less, and you can get any nutrients your body "needs" to "stay alive" by licking a variety of wild rocks.
Join the Raw Food Movement: Save the time you've been wasting on warming up your pit of hot cooking sand by eating raw foods! Carrots, bananas, and all meats are nutritious and natural foods that require no cooking whatsoever. Bonus tip: Glass marbles are the M&Ms of raw food. Outstanding!
