Bekins, home of the “real cool store” and supplier of premium home kitchen appliances for over 25 years announces new services to help make their Customers better cooks.

Bekins Culinary Services offer public and private culinary instruction in the form of regularly scheduled classes or in-home tutoring.

In addition to cooking classes, Bekins offers professional, in-home use & care instructions for the latest high-end kitchen appliances.

“Our new Culinary Program is a great addition to Bekins.  Many of our customers love their kitchen and have appliances with tremendous capabilities.  Now we can help them get everything out of that investment and learn to love using their kitchen even more!” said company president, Scott Bekins.

Chef Thomas Reinhart was brought in to develop the new services and teach the classes.  He is a professionally trained chef with credentials from The Culinary Institute of America and many years of restaurant experience.

Classes at “real cool cooking school” began in May with a series of basic “Cooking FUNdamentals” courses.

“We also offer Customers the option to host a class in their home as a great way to entertain their friends and learn something new and fun at the same time.” offered Chef Tom.

Bekins beautiful Grand Haven showroom is now featuring live cooking demonstrations every Saturday where Chef Tom is on hand to answer questions about food and cooking.
