Cooks & Books

Enjoyed my 2nd class here today, Sourdough bread baking. Left with a valuable amount of questions answered and solid knowledge of the skills needed to continue baking at home. Not to mention a starter + fresh hot loaf of bread! Alicia, Nick + Lynn are welcoming and engaging. Alicia is an excellent teacher. Looking forward to more classes in the future. And the bookstore has a wonderful, curated collection of cookbooks and Bookclub reads. This place is a gem in TV, thank you!

We booked an adult birthday party- we had preselected some recipes to make together to enjoy an evening together. We brought champagne and were provided appetizers and music- and even the decor was set to our color theme! All the ingredients, cooking tools and easy to follow recipes were ready and waiting for us!nnIt’s an absolutely perfect kitchen setup for group cooking and/or learning.nnWe brought birthday cake and gifts. It was a great evening and we all highly recommend this new venue for anyone at any age.nEnjoy!

My sister and I purchased a pasta class as a Christmas gift for our mom and niece. The owner and her husband have created such a welcoming and supportive environment. They were there to help us every step of the way. I highly recommend taking a cooking class or checking out the book store. We had some much fun and are already looking at future classes.

Such a wonderful and creative combination of gifts, books, cooking classes and events. A great place to enjoy some fun with your friends and community in the valley! Love the owner – she works so hard to make this a special experience for all.

Stumbled upon Cooks & Books & met the owner. This is an ethically owned, affordable, community-focused space that’s desperately needed in the Treasure Valley. Will be coming back! ✨
