For more than thirty years, this St. Paul-based gourmet food store/cooking school/equipment provisionary has been without peer. Cooks was the first retail store to offer cooking classes, team-building events, and crop shares of fresh produce. Its cooking school was the first to bring nationally recognized chefs and cookbook writers to the Twin Cities. From internationally renowned cooking to the TC's largest cookbook selection, it satiates even the hungriest cook's appetite for knowledge, inspiration, and gear.
