  My husband and I took a soups and stews cooking class with Aran and Ralph, and it was the perfect alternative to a dinner out on a cold winter night. We made 2 vegetable soups, including garnishes, and a lamb stew, all of which were delicious. My only complaint was that I was almost too full at the end! I cook a lot, and have even made one of the soups in the past. Not only did I learn new techniques, all of the recipes were better than any I had made before. Aran and Ralph were patient and thoughtful, even helping us all with our knife skills on different types of vegetables. The beer they served they brewed themselves, and many of the ingredients came directly from the farm, even in the dead of winter. The meal was finished off with delicious biscotti that Aran had made. They followed up with us a few days later with copies of the recipes, and I have since made both of the soups again. This was a great date night, but could also be perfect for a birthday party with a small group of friends or another special occasion.
