Mantry Box
Grown men cook. They don’t (always) order takeout or hit up their local bar & grill for dinner. If your friends are beginner cooks, Mantry Box will surely lure them into the kitchen. Every two months, they’ll get a box filled with fresh, artisan ingredients as well as easy-to-follow recipes. Each box is built around a theme such as Pizza Party or Tailgate Tour, and comes with a pamphlet about the products. The first shipment comes in a handmade wooden crate, a Mantry trademark.
Price: $60-$300
