The Hairy Bikers’ Big Night Out Join The Hairy Bikers for an evening of cooking, chatting and laughs.

For its 100^th anniversary, the Bible of Scottish Cuisine has been given a revamp with this new edition of the Glasgow Cookery Book. "The Glasgow Cookery Book" started its life in 1910 as the textbook of The Glasgow and West of Scotland College of Domestic Science - fondly dubbed the Do. (or Dough) School by Glasgow citizens - and was put together by the school's staff to document the recipes they taught in class. However, its reputation for dependable and economical recipes ensured that its influence spread far beyond the walls of the Glasgow college. Its practical and reliable cookery advice became famous worldwide. Not just a cookbook, a piece of Scottish history in your kitchen!

If you would rather attend classes or courses to learn to cook or a particular skill, then again Glasgow is the place to be!
