Jupiter Gets A New Cooking School

cooksinc.JPG A new cooking school is coming to Abacoa Town Center in Jupiter this November. John Carlino, the chairman of culinary education at the Florida Culinary Institute, is opening Cooks Inc: Culinary Solutions Center, which will be geared towards non-professionals.

It's going to be a gourmet store and training facility, Carlino said. The center component is a large square where I'll be doing training, and having wine and food sampling, and cooking demonstrations.

The center is being filled with state-of-the-art cooking equipment. Instead of an overhead mirror, overhead cameras and large screens will provide a view of preparations by Carlino and guest chefs. Carlino said he also will provide continuing education classes to professional chefs.

Carlino, who also owns three restaurants in Connecticut, will stock restaurant-quality gourmet meals as grab-and-go dishes, gourmet groceries and fresh, local produce in the market.

Cooking classes, state-of-the-art equipment, meals to go, groceries — geez, what won't this place have?
