A casual discussion for a meet up with
blogger friends turned into an awesome opportunity when lovely Rushina threw
open her heart and the doors of her cooking studio for us. I couldn’t have been
happier. I have picked up cooking as a hobby only recently and I had wanted to
learn from experts. I knew Rushina as this fabulous food blogger with an
awesome space to cook APB Cook Studio. So I lapped up on the opportunity. It can’t get better
than this! (Or so I thought)
But it did get better; we were going to not
only meet Rushina, we were going to cook Italian food with her. Italian food is
my recent obsession; me and my 7 year old love to work on Italian recipes.
(What we finally come up with is a different question altogether). I wanted to
learn! I had to learn for the poor souls I experimented on.
So I crossed my fingers and left for APB
studio with a lot of hope and zest in my heart and some emergency chocolates in
my bag (We were going to eat only what we would cook and I don’t have a perfect
track record you see)
As
soon as I reached the place I knew I had reached the right place. The place was
a perfect blend of kitchen warmth and restaurant finesse. Rushina and her team led
us, taught us, tolerated us (Well, we were a group of giggly women bloggers who
were high on life :P) to some really yummy food.
From the lovely Aglio Olio to focaccia,
from loud chatters to loud thumps of kneading bread, from yours truly mixing up
sugar for salt to some crazy selfie taking students in the middle of the
session, everything was handled beautifully. Everything that we made turned out
beautiful. The session ended on a beautiful sweet note with Tiramisu. What more
could a girl ask for? Learn and cook her favorite food, from one of the
masters, in the company of friends.
This wonderful session was courtesy of
JAMMs. It is a wonderful group led by Ritu Gorai. Did you ask what the group is
about? Well, wait and watch out this space for a detailed insider review of
this rocking group. It’s a secret and sacred space. I will be back soon with a
detailed account. Till then here’s a glimpse of all the fun we had!
