Are you a serious wine lover looking to deepen your knowledge? Do you want access to the same wine training that Danny Meyer's sommeliers receive? Do you want to learn to talk intelligently about wine, or start your own collection? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you'll thoroughly enjoy this 10-week journey through the wine regions of the world, brought to you by ICE along with Union Square Hospitality Group wine director and Master Sommelier John Ragan. Each week, the course will feature guest instructors, including ICE's director of wine studies, Richard Vayda, as well as wine directors and sommeliers from Union Square Cafe, Gramercy Tavern, The Modern, and other restaurants from the USHG family. As part of each class, light bites will be provided by ICE's chefs. This fast-paced and dynamic curriculum, previously offered exclusively for USHG staff, will take you through all the great wine regions of the world. You'll get new insights into tasting, pairing, collecting, and much more, all from the industry-insider perspectives of both ICE's renowned faculty and Danny Meyer's award-winning restaurant group!
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

You want to make great food in a minimum amount of time, but don't have a clue how to go about it. Or you're on your own for the first time and have discovered that eating out is expensive and takeout is tiresome! You need a small repertoire of dishes for daily dining, but you can barely manage instant coffee. Does this sound like you? Then this is the course to take. We assume you know nothing --- absolutely nothing --- about cooking and take it from there. In three relaxed, fun-filled classes, we'll get you on your cooking feet, teaching you how to prepare simple, healthful, delicious food. You'll learn about basic cooking equipment and menu planning; knife skills, including vegetable chopping and paring; how to make salad, vinaigrette, and other easy no-cook dishes; how to roast garlic and root vegetables; how to prepare delicious pasta; how to sauté and roast meats and more; and how to make desserts in minutes. You will learn to make three complete meals in three easy lessons, including: guacamole and chips, make-your-own taco bar, tres leches cake; classic Caesar salad, roast Cornish hens with root vegetables, and blueberry crisp; shrimp cocktail and garlic bread, classic fettuccini alfredo, arugula and radicchio salad with apples and glazed walnuts, and ice cream tiramisu
The South is quite possibly the most delicious region in the country. It's hard not to love its fried...well, its fried everything, plus its braised vegetables and its mile-high pies and cakes. In the land of biscuits and sweet tea, life centers around mealtimes. Come learn a few of those Southern favorites, including: pimento cheese; Southern fried chicken; slow-roasted barbecue ribs; biscuits with honey butter; and braised collard greens. You will sip on sweet tea to complete your feast.
*This class is for kids and teens only.* Steakhouses become institutions for their comforting, rich and filling dishes. Just like one of our most popular classes for adults (The Great New York Steakhouse), this class teaches teens to make a classic meal that's fit for a king. Your delicious menu consists of trademark cuisine that has been pleasing diners for decades, featuring: grilled steak with compound butter; macaroni and cheese; and creamed spinach.
