Nothing says male bonding like some bad-boy time on the beach
Cook in Napa
Guys who think cooking is “woman’s work” obviously missed the memo, because the majority of the world’s top-rated chefs are men. You may never own a Michelin-starred restaurant, but there’s no better place to learn the basics than the Culinary Institute of America in Northern California’s Napa Valley. The CIA offers very masculine "Live-Fire Cooking" classes – you’ll be the ultimate barbecue man on the block in no time. If it gets too hot in the kitchen, get out to one of Napa Valley’s superb restaurants where you can sit back and let someone else do the cooking, or enjoy the fruit of the vine at one of the Valley’s 300+ wineries.
Book It: The CIA 's "Sophisticated Palate" series offers a "Live-Fire Cooking" course (June 25–26, 2009). The intensive 2-day program is $1,995 per person and includes kitchen orientation, lecture, hands-on cooking, and food and wine pairing.
