I'm not sure. Perhaps I ought to go to France to learn to cook French food? On the other hand, Italian is getting votes, and that'd be an even easier place for me to go learn to cook things just now. I am least likely to go to Thailand anytime soon, it's true.

That's not really an answer to your question but a commentary. If you'd been able to vote for several, which others would you have chosen?

Brunch: Because I am a sucker for brunch; because it's a lovely social occasion which can be as formal or as casual as you like, and because there can be alcohol involved or not, and either way, no one will be offended. Brunch dishes are often a lovely mix of comfort and adventuresome food and I love to cook them. I think a class in that would be great fun and very relaxed.

Sauces: Because sauces can liven up anything from meat to veggies, making hated foods palatable. I think using sauces correctly makes you look very sophisticated. Also, if you learn to cook them correctly, you can control the ingredients properly and stop sauces from becoming calorie-fests.

Knife Skills: Not sure what it might entail, but it sounds useful.

In the end, I choose Thai food, because the harmony of flavours, textures, and spices is always pleasing to me, and I think a cooking class like that would be fun. And, yes, going to France is certainly more likely than Thailand, given your geographical location...although this did not enter into my voting decision. :-)

Anyway, my $.02.
