Summer is winding down, and what better way to say goodbye than with some pics of our summer vacation. Members of our MCP family went on some very cool trips this summer and got some serious food inspiration! Our Director of Operations, Sara, explored southern Italy and got a citrus food tour of her dreams in Sorrento. Our Lead Chef Instructor, Matt, visited the beautifully quiet beach town of Puerto Escondido in Oaxaca, Mexico and indulged in local treats. Weâre happy theyâre back and ready to share what theyâve learned! Swipe to check out the fun flavors they experienced.

Sometimes the perfect bite comes down to the placement of a raspberry. Our chefs know attention to detail can elevate any dish and their meticulous care is evident in every bite we serve at My Cooking Party.
Our double chocolate brownie with raspberries and ganache always impresses because our chefs have calculated the perfect balance of bittersweet to tart, fudgy texture to bursts of bright berry juice.
In the words of Charles R. Swindoll, "the difference between something good and something great is attention to detail."

We love hearing from you, so if you enjoyed a party with us recently, write us a review on Yelp or tag us in your party pics on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram! We just might feature you on our page. Shout out to Lisa R. for her kind words about the birthday party she attended last weekend. We'll definitely pass along her compliments to the chefs and waitstaff!

Our Battle of the Bites is always a big hit with guests! It combines the best of all the food shows you binge watch: weird ingredients, amateur chefs, and a countdown!
Teams will select different foods from our mystery drawers that they will then use to make scrumptious hor d'oeuvres for the whole group to enjoy. Judges will mark the bite-sized dishes on presentation, creativity, taste, and incorporation of any and all curve-ball ingredients. (Cinnamon and sugar crusted apple fritters would win points with us, for sure!). The entire group can taste each creation before a winner is announced and awarded top honors (and delightful chef hats!)
So, do you have what it takes to prevail in the Battle of the Bites? Enter the fray at www.mycookingparty.com

âImagination has a great deal to do with winning.â - Mike Krzyzewski
In our dinner duel program, you can flex your culinary imagination to the max! Guests are split into two teams and each receives a starch, a protein, and a veggie to transform into three amazing dishes. No recipes, no cheat codes, no problem!
Our amazing chefs will help your team brainstorm and execute your three fabulous dishes and then your team will present your creations to the judges. While the judges deliberate, you'll sit down to a family-style meal of all you made in class â so make it good! After the meal, the winning team is announced and receives a special prize!
The Dinner Duel is perfect for any groups looking to be challenged â be it a corporate team-building event or private party!

Our MCP program is a three-course cooking lesson that's anything but dull! We don't call it My Cooking *Party* for nothing. While you're learning to make an appetizer, entree, and a scrumptious dessert, you'll have house red and white wine, good tunes, and energetic staff to help you along. Let your hair down and pick up excellent cooking tips and recipes.
Our MCP program is perfect for corporate team building with a collaborative focus, as well as bridal showers and bachelorette and birthday parties.
At My Cooking Party, we think our event staff are pretty great and we're not the only ones! We hosted Estee Lauder this past Wednesday for our MCP program and they had lovely things to say! Thanks, đ„°

"THE BEST BACHELORETTE PARTY IN NYC!"
In the spirit of the Top Chef and Iron Chef phenomenon - MCP offers a competition outlet for the reality star within you. In this style program, guests can sign up with their group of 6-12 individuals. On arrival, you will be greeted with passed hors d'oeuvres before heading into the kitchen where the battle will commence. First, teams will select their ingredients. Then, under the guidance of our chefs, groups must work to invent & execute hors d'oeuvres that beat the competition. Participants will be judged based on creativity, taste, and design. After a couple of curve balls, guests will pitch their creations to our Master of Ceremonies. All participants enjoy the fruit of their labor as well as the hors d'oeuvres created by the alternate teams. The winning bride enjoys bragging rights and a take away prize!
At My Cooking Party, we know a thing or two about good bread! Thatâs why weâve added the Bread Platter to our list of delicious add-ons. Find out what sort of scrumptious dishes you can make with a sourdough roll, a crusty baguette, or some fresh ciabatta. Yum.
And build a delicious meal around it, like chimichurri chicken, slow-roasted salmon or pork and ricotta meatballs.
