Did you make a resolution to cook more at home for 2012? We're here to help you have restaurant-quality meals in the comfort of your own home (and, if you choose, without even leaving home). In conjunction with our 2012 Winter Cooking Class series, we've created Cooking Class Meal Kits available for sale at our online store, hillsonthego.com. 

With each kit, we'll pull everything you need to create the starters, main courses and/or desserts that our Columbus-area chefs cover during their cooking classes. Each kit comes with the ingredients and recipes that you'll need to serve 4 to 6 people.

You can peruse options in our recipes and place your order for pick up or delivery in the Cooking Class section at hillsonthego.com.

Recipes include:

The Inn at Cedar Falls' Pan Seared Halibut with Portobello Risotto and Canal Junction Lock 21 with Scallion Oil. Order all the ingredients for this recipe at our online store here.

Pitabilities' Buffalo Chicken Pita. Order all the ingredients for this recipe at our online store here.

The collaborative spirit among Columbus' small businesses is one of the things that makes our city so great. This morning, we joined our friends Matthew Barbee of Rockmill Brewery and Jeni Britton Bauer of Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream on Good Day Columbus to talk about holiday gifts. We've all found creative ways to work with one another, and we were excited to join them (early) this morning for a December gathering. Consider giving a Rockmill Brewery Gift Set or an "I Dream of Jeni's" Gift Package this holiday season. They're both here at Hills: with a little help from our friends.

SALE! Our "I Dream of Jeni's " Hoodies are $34.99 each until 1/1/12. 

Make your list, check it twice. And pick up some seriously incredible gifts while you do your basic shopping. Our "I Dream of Jeni's" American Apparel Hoodies and our Igloo Letterpress prints are going quickly. Stop by today to stock up for your favorite foodie. 

Knowing that finding the perfect holiday gift can stressful (exhausting, even), we have the ideal gift for anyone; from dear friends and family, to clients, co-workers, teachers even hairdressers and delivery people. We make it easy to spread holiday cheer without breaking the bank — or losing your mind.

We wrap all of our gifts up in a way that clearly tells your recipient how lucky he or she is to know the giver. A custom-designed “Lucky You” gift tag and packaging features an Ohio icon, a nod to our unbridled passion for offering local and Ohio-made gifts and goodies this season.
