We’re Moving

Dear Friends of the Accidental Cooking School, It is with a heavy heart that we inform you that our landlord chose not to renew our lease at 406 Garfield St. This means that August 30th is our last day of business at our current downtown Lafayette locale. We hope you will join us one final time, and are offering all cooking classes at 1/2 off, or $50 per seat, plus tip and gratuity. Click through this splash page to our Website and click on Make a Reservation. Again, to get your 50% discount, enter the coupon code — moving — thanks again.

It has been wonderful to serve you and we look forward to our next opportunity to have a convivial time at The Accidental Chef Cooking School. Our mission remains to please you and we certainly hope that we have achieved that goal. We have added extra nights to the schedule as well as Sunday brunch. If you want a lunch meeting or party just get 20 people together and it’s on. I want to cook till I drop.

All coupons or gift certificates must be redeemed in by August 30th, 2012

You guys are the greatest...
