WIN: MACHO PINTXOS

Your chance to win the perfect gift for the man in your life this Valentine's day

 

They say a way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, and we suspect this may ring true for many females too. So why not start by teaching him a few tricks in the kitchen too? As Valentine’s day nears, we’ve discovered the perfect solution that will benefit the both of you – Sabato’s Macho Pintxos cooking class.

Now there is no excuse for the boys to stay out of the kitchen with this men’s only cooking class focusing on the creation of pintxos - the Basque region’s answer to tapas. Leave the teaching to the experts as this demonstration of desirable little Spanish dishes serves up the perfect mix of culinary mastery and entertainment - a cooking night that will no doubt be peppered with useful advice and hilarious anecdotes, by the ever-entertaining Peta Mathias.

We have two coveted places to giveaway to Denizen readers, worth $95 each. To go in the draw, email your details and why you think you should win to contact@thedenizen.co.nz.

Competition closed. Congratulations to Melanie Tan.
