Rotary enjoys a private cooking class and dinner at LA Food Works
Rotary Around LA chair Brian Linnekens kicked off the year in style on August 25th with a cooking class and dinner at LA Food Works. As the would-be chefs arrived, the professional chefs provided some exquisite canapes to demonstrate the right way to do it. Wine and beer ensured enjoyment if not skill.
