Our Seattle Summer Program recently enjoyed a lively cooking class🍳 at Hot Stove Society, a culinary school established by Chef Tom Douglas. Twenty-three students and lawyers gathered their friendly competitive spirit and made dumplings and hum bao buns in teams. The dumplings and buns were carefully crafted under the guidance of experienced chefs, who set the tone of the evening with jokes and encouragement. Everyone enjoyed socializing and sharing a relaxed family-style dinner while the chefs decided on the winning team—which was Team Vegetarian! #LawStudents #SummerAssociates #LegalCareers #LegalProfession #PerkinsCoieSummer24
