We have access to a real New York City gem: The Sunview Luncheonette. The Sunview is a former diner turned venue for arts, community and food. We have the use of the luncheonette for the whole week, to cook in, eat in, and use as our base. On Friday we will open our doors as a luncheonette and serve a Fancy meal to parents. This is the 10th year of Luncheonette camp!
IMPORTANT NOTE!
Midwinter Cooking Camp will only Utilize the Sunview on the final day, to cook and serve food to parents. Drop off and pickup at the Sunview on Friday only. Mon-Thurs. will be at Brooklyn Apple HQ (there is no heat at the luncheonette)
