Cooking Programs
Do you want to learn how to make pad thai or pupusas?
Take advantage of the thriving food culture of Charlottesville by coming to a cooking program at the IC. Learn to cook foods from all around the world. The cooking programs are led by volunteers from U.Va.’s international community of students, scholars and families. Occasionally the IC offers a cooking program with a guest chef from one of Charlottesville’s restaurants.
Do you have a favorite food that you know how to prepare?
The IC is looking for individuals, pairs or groups who would be willing to hold a 1-2 hour cooking session for groups of 10-15 students. It is a wonderful opportunity for you and a friend or two to share your culture in a fun and casual environment. The IC covers the cost of all supplies.
To teach a program or to take a program, contact the IC at intlctr@virginia.edu or (434) 924-7983.
