Saint Oliver’s Sizzlers is more than a cooking class.  It is also an opportunity to reach out and involve our multi ethnic community in a total cultural experience.  Our goal is to fill you up not only with tangible foods, the tastes and sights and sounds from around the world, but with the spiritual gift of being with the diverse people who together form our community.

 

Parishioners of all ages and nationalities are literally transported to a different country at each lesson.  They come away from each lesson with a better understanding and acceptance of the many customs and cultures from around the world.

 

Immigration and globalization connects many cultures, and Saint Oliver’s Sizzlers attempts to bring our community together by uniting the world at the table, sharing a meal in Christian fellowship.  Our goal is to incorporate all the countries represented in our parish.  Along with teaching a particular recipe our cooks talk about their experiences in their countries of origin and discuss their traditional customs and life experiences.

 

We invite you to be explorers of the appetite. Travel with us to sample food, music, and cultures from around the world - from the exotic cuisines of Vietnam, the Philippines and the Caribbean to the classics of Europe.
