Introducing: Student Chef Classes
Given
the great success we’ve had as a club with Student Chef Dinners, we’ve decided to try something
new that we’re calling Student Chef Classes. Student Chef Classes are an opportunity for student
chefs to share their skills in the kitchen by teaching a group of members a unique cooking-related skill
and for those of you with food start-ups, it’s a free way to get some publicity
You
can get creative with what you’re teaching, but to get you started we’re thinking that classes
could be either categorical classes (e.g., knife skills, homemade pasta making, or bread baking) or
ingredient-based classes (e.g., how to cook scallops, how to make pastries, how to braise meat). We’ll
be covering the cost of the class and it should be a great way to get to know more club members and
have a fun experience.
If you’re interested in hosting
a class please email us by 2/9 and tell us the following:
- Proposed
topic
- Why you want to teach this
- How big a class you can host
- Estimated cost
- Two or three convenient dates
If
the class is approved, we’ll let you know and you’ll be able to show off your skills on
our dime.

Student Chef Dinner Updates
Diners: We’re excited to have kicked off this quarter’s
student chef dinners with our first dinners taking place last week. One issue we’re seeing is
that many people are currently signed up for more than 1 dinner. If you are, please go to this Google
Doc link and chose which one you want to attend. We’ll give you until the end of
this week (2/9) to do so, at which point we’ll keep you on your first dinner and take you off
any subsequent ones.
Hosts: If
hosts have spots for upcoming dinners, please publicize it on the Facebook group to fill the spots.
Also, please find attached the reimbursement doc (remember, it’s $10 per diner – including
the chefs). Reimbursement requests should be sent to Lilly Li (lill...@wharton.upenn.edu) within a month of your dinner.

Buck a Shuck Oyster Party!
Love oysters, but hate paying $4 per bite – we’ll
we have the solution.
Introducing
the buck a shuck. We’ve partnered with Doc Magrogran’s for an extended oyster happy hour
from 4-:30-7:30pm on February 19th.
We’ll be covering not only your first
drink, but also all the oysters until our budget runs out. Then, they’ll still be only a buck.
For restaurant capacity reasons, we have to limit the number
of people who can come but have negotiated the entire restaurant, so we’ll have space for just
over 100. Think of it -- while they do the shucking for you, you can avoid Drexel kids, hang out with
your closest friends, and focus on getting your post-Valentine’s Day Aphrodisiac on…
Tickets
can be purchased here starting at 9pm tonight
[we won’t be sending a follow-up link later to avoid SPAMing you]
