Wine was not served in the class because it was held on school prop erty. Sparkling mineral water was served instead. “My wife’s making me take this class,” laughed Steve Riddell. Riddell is not a student at Clackamas; he heard about the class through a friend that works at the college. The class, pictured left, is learn ing how to make a northern Italian dinner. Two more classes are scheduled. Friday, May 11 features Mediterra nean dinner salads and Friday, June 1 features Pasta Possibilities. Staff Writer The first of three cooking classes was held last Friday at the Cougar Café taught by Anne E. Grassi, Clackamas executive chef; seven people attended. This is Grassi’s first time offering these classes. “It’s just kind of a trial to see if it’s going to work,” said Grassi. “The kitchen the class had to learn in is considered a working kitchen; it is not designed to be a teaching kitchen.” Grassi decided to try these work shops in response to requests from students and staff. ‘T ve been over whelmed by interest,” said Grassi.
