Cooking Classes

I'm thinking of taking up cooking classes. The full courses are just a little expensive. I was looking at some short courses offered by Heny Sison which got me really interested. I'm thinking of joining their chocolate indulgence session for Php1650 on Sept 10. I'm also thinking of joining the South Beach Diet Cooking Series. Joining these sessions would really be a great experience, but I'm still hesitating a bit because of the cost. Maybe I will just research some recipes through the internet and just experiment on myself.
