Tune Up Your Cooking Skills at the Wallace Center

Chef Katie Porter of the Wallace House in Des Moines is taking reservations for cooking classes on Feb. 20. Farm-to-table dinners are still available Thursdays throughout the spring.

Take your Valentine to dinner, and you’ll eat well for a night. Teach your Valentine to cook, and you’ll eat well for years. So why not sign up for class with chef Katie Porter at the Wallace House in Des Moines?

The two-hour classes combine hands-on demonstrations and tempting bites of the final meal. Plus, you can bring your own wine to enjoy during the experience. The first class kicks off April 3, followed by five more on Mondays throughout the year. Reservations open Feb. 20.

For a more hands-off approach, the center also offers farm-to-table dinners on Thursdays, with upcoming openings March 30 through June 29.
