It’s the beginning of a new month, and what does that mean? A new Cook schedule is being released. On Monday, February 6, the new class list will go live on the Cook website but, as always, we are here with an early look so you can plan your assault before the rest of the city knows what’s happening.

For starters, Foobooz is organizing another Neighborhood Pop-Up. Our East Passyunk version went swimmingly last month. For February, we organized a Fishtown pop-up (scheduled for the 15th) with Loco Pez, Paesano’s, the Pickled Heron and Whipped Bake Shop all coming together for one night of magic (and booze). That one sold out in less than an hour. For March, we decided that what would be awesome would be to bring some of the city’s best food trucks indoors for one night only–sticking their chefs behind Cook’s stoves to do their best work in a kitchen with no wheels–as a celebration of the power and diversity of our “Wheeled Neighborhood.” That one is scheduled for Wednesday, March 21, so if you’re down with the truck food (and like the thought of eating from a bunch of them all in one night, without waiting or worrying about getting snowed on), be ready to register fast come Monday. If the past is any indicator, this one will probably sell out fast, too.
