Culinary Vacations

If you're looking for a more in-depth culinary experience, a five-day Culinary Vacation may be just the answer! There's plenty of time to explore the relationship between food and wine at the Wine Country Cooking School at Strewn, Canada's only winery school then enjoy the attractions of the Niagara region!

In 2008, Culinary Vacations are offered June 16-20, July 14-18, August 11-15, and September 15-18.

Your Culinary Vacation starts daily with a themed hands-on cooking lesson (such as: Niagara's Regional Cuisine, Nature's Bounty/Seasonal Ingredients, Cooking with Wine, Cooking with Herbs, and Developing a Food & Wine Menu). You will enjoy lunch – matched with wine – in the School's private dining room or outside on the patio.

Afternoons are for behind-the-scene visits to growers, the market, and participating in a tutored wine tasting at Strewn.

On Wednesday evening, you will enjoy dinner at Terroir La Cachette, the acclaimed Provençal-inspired restaurant at Strewn.

After class there's plenty of time to explore the region's natural beauty, take in the theatre, the history and the sights. We are happy to assist you with arrangements!

Cost is $1,175 per person (without accommodation) plus 5% tax.
