This year, Rustan’s collaborates with the resident Restaurant Consultant of Rustan’s East Café, Chef Him Uy de Baron, to help elevate your summer dining experience in the convenience and safety of your own homes. Embrace the sunny season and discover delicious, memorable recipes through Zoom-instructed sessions with HIMpossible Recipes Class, which will run until the end of this year.

“Himpossible Recipes is a proud partner of Rustan’s in bringing kitchen-tested family-approved recipes to as many homes as we could. We have worked with Rustan’s Summer on Call to provide an even better service of making the home cook’s life easier. Rustan’s will take care of the participants’ hardware, whether these are electric appliances that will make cooking a lot more convenient or dinnerware to showcase the hard work they put in and present the food well,” Chef Him Uy de Baron, Restaurant Consultant of Rustan’s East Café.

Each class will have a unique theme that will require specific kitchen tools and equipment, which, if unavailable to you, can be found at Rustan’s. The recipes of dishes and an e-catalog of cooking tools and equipment will be sent to the participants before each session. Classes and their corresponding equipment can be ordered thru Rustan’s Summer on Call program, which allows one-on-one service with Rustan’s Personal Shoppers through call or messaging apps.
