If you've been thinking about taking my Ethnic Cuisines of Canada course through the University of Victoria Continuing Studies Department, time is running short!
You need to enrol this week (Feb. 15-19) or the course won't be offered. Dates are Wednesday nights March 3rd to 31st. Price is just $150 + GST for all five sessions.
You should take this course if you are interested in learning about how our major immigrant populations brought their own cuisines to Canada, how they adapted them and how more mainstream Canadians reacted to these 'strange new dishes'.
The proper name of the course is: Ethnic Cuisines: How World Cuisines Survive and Thrive in Canada. You can go to the registration page here. If the course goes ahead I'll be teaching it at the Thrifty Foods Cooking and Lifestyle Centre in the Victoria Tuscany Village store, which means I'll be doing some cooking you can taste during the class.
Cuisines featured include Italian, Greek, Asian, East Indian and Latin American. The classes are sure to be informative and fun, so please sign up soon!
This looks great, and what an experience to learn how to make ethnic foods! I would love to do that but I don’t have the money and do not live there. This is a great idea that I may be looking around for in my area. Thanks!!
