The Food Evolution is a culinary center committed to edible autonomy by teaching individuals how to prepare delectable and nutritious whole foods for themselves and their families. Taught by a diverse team of trained chefs and certified nutritionists, including two-time Top Chef competitor Andrea Beaman, The Food Evolution teaches its students a tastier regimen than eating illustrated cookbook pages and fruit-bowl wall art. Founder and director Diane Hoch provides hour long one-on-one counseling sessions to tailor a program to help meet specific health and wellness goals on the whole-grain-paved path to nutrition. The Food Evolution's two hour hands-on cooking education includes sessions on wonderful winter soups, decadent anti-oxidant chocolate desserts, and raw green smoothie workshops. Learn cooking for two with one of the three hour couples classes, or fly solo while learning to combat cravings or how to beat the sugar blues with one of its lectures.

- Hoch, who has a degree in integrative nutrition from Columbia University and practices nutritional counseling, chooses her teachers by watching them do a demonstration. They don't need to be professional chefs, just have a passion for food and eating well. – Alanna Heraghty, Nanuet Patch
