I Will Be Teaching A Week of Asian Cuisine at John C Campbell Folk School

Today I will be starting a week long adventure into Asian Cusine at the John C Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, North Carolina. I will be teaching a fun collection of artistic cuisine from China, Japan, Thailand, Viet Nam, Indonesia and more.

The welcoming red door lets me know that I am home and in store for a great week of fun and fellowship. A week at the JCCFS is like going back to a simpler time. Non competitive learning experiences allow for great creativity and a lot of fun.

Inside the Keith House Living Room and Library you can relax with a good book, a cup of coffee and meet many new friends. You can certainly create long time friendships with the great people that fill Keith Hall during the week.

A view of the country side and valley the tucks the JCCFS into another time and place. Rustic buildings, gardens, orchards, trails, studios all running at a much slower pace. This is a place for people with a high pressure lifestyle to truly decompress.

Rocking chairs on the back porch of the Keith House. A Great place to welcome the new morning with a hot cup of coffee, or end the day in the late afternoon overlooking the mountains.

Classes will start this evening.I will post more updates and photos throughout the week. You can visit the JCCFS website at www.folkschool.com.
