"Hands on and demo classes are offered at Crescent City Cooks in the lower French Quarter on Chartres. Both include a meal and the focus is on classic New Orleans and South Louisiana dishes. The cooking school offers daily three-course lunch demos classes from 10 to 12:15 p.m. for $35 or roll up your sleeves and make the likes of dirty rice stuffed peppers and shrimp remoulade for $100-$150 depending on the size of the group. A glass of wine or beer is included." - Beth D'Addono
