why us?

We at MCP know that you have many options for your culinary activity needs, so why choose us? Well, here's a short list!
- WE ARE INVENTORS - What Albert Einstein is to E=mc², we are to Cooking Parties...we founded the concept!!

- WE ARE EVENT PLANNERS - Even NYC's professional schools have adopted our model (but they haven't replaced their clinical feeling, fluorescent lighting or soft rock playlist). Leave the office behind, and come cook with us in one of our beautiful & unique NYC lofts.

- WE ARE ENGAGING - We are the only company that is committed to the strategy of learning by doing - We avoid lengthy lectures, and encourage you to cook with passion - MCP's number one ingredient.

- WE ARE HERE FOR YOU, BECAUSE OF YOU - Whether you desire more cooking and less party, or vice versa, when you choose to work with us, you will receive a customized experience where our expertise in culinary events is matched with your individual objectives for a fulfilling and enjoyable outing.
